Hi Trailers

 

SATURDAY 3 December 2022 – Pipe track, Oudekraal, Grootkop, Woody

 

A known route with a twist – we will be summitting Grootkop, the difference being we will try not to get lost going up via Oudekraal Ravine.

 

Brief Description of the Route

 

From the parking area at Theresa Avenue Camps Bay, we go up to and along the scenic pipe track all the way to the end.  Instead of going up Corridoor, we will follow the faint path to the right, along and up Oudekraal, up Grootkop, and back by any number of choices to be decided on the day.

 

Rendezvous and Start Time

 

RV at Theresa Avenue at 6.20 to start running at 6.30am

 

Terrain and Distance

 

All sorts from jeep track to single track to climbs.  11km, 950m altitude gain.

There will be the normal sorting out who is in what group along the pipe track, generally a quicker group goes off the front leaving a medium pace group following.  Walkers to be confirmed on Friday.

 

How to get there?

 

Go to Theresa Avenue Camps Bay…

Warning:  Trail running is inherently more dangerous than road running.  It takes place over uneven hazard strewn trails in exposed and often remote terrain where help is not always readily available.  

Participation is voluntary and entirely at your own risk as although the organizers take reasonable precautions to ensure runner safety, it cannot be guaranteed.  To this end neither the Club nor the organisers personally can be held liable for any claims relating to inter alia, injuries, disabilities and death. Further any minor child participating in any trail running activity will be deemed to be doing so with the consent of his or her guardian.

By starting out on a trail run you explicitly acknowledge that: 1] you understand the associated risks involved and accept full responsibility for your own safety. 2] you are medically and physically fit to participate and 3] are carrying the necessary water, clothing and safety equipment required for the particular run.
