Dubbed the "Mother of Hard Enduro," the Roof of Africa takes riders to the breathtaking yet unforgiving landscapes of Lesotho. With its origin dating back to 1967, this race is as legendary as it gets. What makes it unique? The mix of brutal terrain and incredible culture. Riders face steep mountain trails, treacherous riverbeds, and endless technical sections, all under the watchful gaze of the Maloti Mountains.
The event spans three days, starting with the Round the Houses prologue, a high-speed lap through the streets of Maseru that draws thousands of excited locals. But the real challenge lies in the multi-stage off-road battles, where navigation plays as big a role as skill. GPS is essential, but it’s the riders’ grit that carries them through.
Roof of Africa isn’t just a race—it’s a survival story. From Graham Jarvis’ masterclass in conquering Lesotho’s challenges to the wild celebrations at the finish line, this race embodies the heart of Hard Enduro.
