HOLIDAY SEASON RUN WAY DOWN SOUTH!
After a scenic two hour drive from Cape Town over rolling hills, you will find the Southern-most region of Africa, part of the magical Overberg, where the majestic Atlantic and Indian oceans meet. This area stretches from Die Dam in the west, to the De Hoop Nature Reserve in the east.
You can enjoy a NEW addition this year will be the family holiday run just before sunset on the 16th of December. This run will have a 5km and 10km option with the routes crossing various terrain of tar, beach and off-road trails. What a weekend for the whole family to enjoy as the holiday season starts!
The main mountain bike race on the Saturday morning is 72km, testing the skill and stamina of the rider. Then there is the scenic 46km route and the slightly downscaled 35km ride, as well as a 10km event to enjoy at your leisure. MORE INFO
