Great weekend hike, not to long and not to short. Loved the Hut between the rocks. See the website: http://suikerboschfontein.co.za
A unique race run in a unique place. The Kruger Park half marathon held in and around the small staff village of Skukuza in the heartland of one of Africa's greatest wildlife refuges - the Kruger National Park. Two ho...
Great run. A bit chilly at the start. The route follows a road around the outskirts of Middelburg. It is and out and back route that is undulating but there are no difficult climbs. The second half feels like more downhi...

This part of the run covered the first two hiking days on the trail. Start at Ceylon hut and run up to Maritzbos hut. This is a fairly easy section mostly on roads. From Maritzbos proceed through the forest and up the mo...
Its a slow steady climb for the first 22km with one big climb as you approach the airfield. Its not something to panic about though. As you get closer to the highest point the wind seems to pick up. This year it wasn't t...
An early start sees us off along a fairly flat ridge on the edge of the escarpment with fantastic rock formations and the aloes in bloom. 7km sees the start of a steep single track descent (300m in 2km) into the valley. ...

Its more about the weekend away in the park than the run itself. A bit of warm weather to break the Jhb winter cold. This year was one of the hottest races.
Moderate hike starting with a steep but short uphill and then downhill over the Island saddle, and then flattish trail along the Rock Fairies River. Includes an optional (but very worthwhile! 8-) detour to the bottom of...
Nice extension to the Stone Circles Loop.
We didn’t start from the hut but got dropped off on a road close to the waterfall - this only saved 700m off the trail. The waterfalls are beautiful and once you’ve seen them, the rest of the road winds down the mountain...
Pierre dup & I set off on a new road,it turned into a marathon! We ended up just outside Barberton having to cycle back up and over the pass.Crazy! Eventually Pierre Odendal rode out with ice cold energy drinks and banan...
Leaving stables overnight hut we head off towards that mountain that we all wondered about the previous evening, climbing to 2046m. rapidly descending through grassland and forest then a climb to the Mac Mac overnight hu...
Starting from the Ceylon hut we follow forestry roads through pine plantations until we emerge at the Maritzbos overnight hut. After a short breather we head off into the dense indigenous forest for a long climb up to th...
This follows the fifth day of the hiking trail. This is normally the longest day. Starting at Graskop hut you follow the path until you eventually reach the edge of the escarpment. Then its a long downhill section throug...
GOLA-GOLA (Grade 7) A lovely walk of approximately 2km one way, crossing the stream many times. It is a relatively difficult walk, but has no steep climbs. Start beyond cottage 1 and continue along the old farm road. Tu...
Scenic relativly flat except for the tough hill climb on the back end. It must be said that over 80% of the route is farm or dirt road. Soft sand is common. Tough for a 21km but fun.
A half marathon in the Kruger National Park. Run on some tar as well as off road through the African bush. Rangers guard the route. The race starts late, at 08:30am, so you can do a game drive before the event.
Not so easy, gravel road but the constant view over the river into the KNP makes it all worthwhile! Well organised race!
HACKETT’S KITCHEN (Grade 9) The starting point is by Cottage 5, from where you can follow the signs. En route, you will pass a slate quarry, last in use well over 80 years ago by a prospector called Hackett, who camped ...
LOST CITY (Grade 3) Over the years, wind and water erosion have carved beautiful shapes in the sandstone. Drive or walk the 3km along the entrance road to the old sand pit on your right. From there, follow the signs goi...
