Hi Trailers

On Saturday we will be  running from Constantia Nek and going up Skeleton Gorge and down Nursery Ravine. There are lots of route options there and back including one for those who don't want to go down Nursery
 
 
 Route details

 Start at Constantia Nek and run along the contour path to skeleton gorge.

Once we have gone up Skeleton, there is a choice: We can turn left and go directly to Nursery, or we can visit the beach and run alongside Healy Hutchinson and then turn back to Nursery (extra 2kms).

For those that don't want to go down Nursery, Gaeleen will be taking Smuts track and running down past the overseer's cottage and the concrete road.

Once down nursery we can return the way we came or we can go up rooikat and take the upper contour path

A variety of routes and distances - see attached map

Subject: TABLE MOUNTAIN TRAILERS Saturday 22nd September 2018: East Fort, Hout Bay

Greetings Trailers


This week we return to the Republic of Hout Bay for a route with a mixture of trail and road.

Route details

Meet at the parking by Vida e Caffe at the bottom of Chappies.  

Inline image

We warm up with a run up the road to the start of the trail at East Fort. The lungs get working heading up to the contour path and then we hang a right towards Blackburn Ravine.  Following the single track we are treated to magnificent views (weather permitting) across the bay.

At approximately 6km we start descending and at the trail intersection hang right to head down to Chapmans Peak drive, popping out by the "ticket checker".  From here we have a leg stretching run on the tar back to our cars.

Please remember this a pack run, and with the recent reported incidents its even more important that we look out for each other.  

Rendezvous and Start Time

RV in the parking area 06:50 ready to start at 07:00.


Terrain and Distance

A mix of jeep track, single track and tar.  

Distance: +- 12 kms taking about 2h00 - 2h30mins for Medium Group

Fast Group
Will follow a similar route with an extension to be decided on the day.

Relaxed Group to be confirmed.

*Please note adjustments to the route may be made whilst running depending on the group and weather conditions.


Please bring:

A whistle, water, a warm & waterproof/windproof top, space blanket and ICE tag or card.

Unfortunately no dogs.


Hope to see you on Saturday, have a great week!

Hi Trailers,

Spring has sprung and the world is puddle-wonderful* and it's time for our own version of the Peace Trail. 

We'll differ slightly from the official run in that we'll begin at the traditional Trailer's start venue: the Mouille Point Lighthouse. From here we'll begin the climb up Signal Hill vía Glengarriff Road. The rest of the Medium group's run will follow the Peace Trail route along single track with amazing views of our darling Table and the Oceans all round. The distance will be about 12km. 



The Faster group will ascend a section of Lion's Head. 

Relaxed group to be confirmed on Friday. 

Bring Water, whistle & a warm, wind proof or waterproof top. Have your  ICE info and space blanket in your pack too please!

No dogs - sorry!

See you on Saturday!

TABLE MOUNTAIN TRAILERS tomorrow's run from Newlands Forest

Hi all

Tomorrow’s run is on…

 

Meet in the Newlands Forest carpark at 7.

 

There should be 3 groups, fast-ish, medium and relaxed.

 

The fast-ish and medium groups will do the whole route, and the pace of the group will be the pace of the slowest runner. 

There will be frequent regroups to keep the group together.

 

The weather looks peachy, no cloud, hardly any wind and a high of 16.  Perfect.

 

See you there

Any questions, whatsapp or phone
