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.  

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!
