Subject: TABLE MOUNTAIN TRAILERS - SATURDAY 18 January 2025 Suikerbossie, Myburgh's Ravine up , Llandudno Ravine down

 

Hi Trailers

 

For the second official run of the year, we're visiting the Hout Bay side of the mountain. Starting at Suikerbossie, we run through to Myburgh's Ravine, wind our way up the ravine, run the undulating path through to Judas Peak and take Llandudno Ravine down.

For those that don't enjoy so much climbing and height, Lorraine will lead a shorter, flatter run through to Myburgh's waterfall and back

Route

From the parking we start up the path on the righthand side of Suikerbossie with the forest on our right. At the junction we turn right and have some flowing running through to Myburgh's Ravine. Once in the ravine we initially go up on the left and cross over to the right-hand side about halfway. There may be some early red disas at the crossover point. Once at the top we turn left with some more flowing single track to the Apostles path. Here we turn left. At the turnoff to Judas Peak, we may as well bag the peak and enjoy the views. Back down to the path and follow it down to Llandudno ravine. This is steep at times and has ropes and staples for assistance but is very doable.

Rendezvous and start time

Meet at the parking on the left-hand side of the Suikerbossie road before the entrance to Ruyterplaats estate. Be ready to run at 6h30

Terrain & Distance

Single track all the way

The route is around 10km (estimated) but has lots of ascent and descent so will take around 3 hours for the medium group

Lorraine's route will be around 8km

What to bring 

Although we are on the shady side of the mountain, it may get hot at the top. Please come prepared as usual for all sorts of weather, plus a whistle, a space blanket and your ICE information

Please check the weather before you set off from home and pack the appropriate gear, enough water and food.

Please note that TMT unfortunately does not allow dogs on its runs.

• Please carry emergency contact numbers on your wrist/shoe
• If you are not well, please stay at home

TABLE MOUNTAIN TRAILERS WE'RE BACK! SATURDAY 11TH JANUARY 2025 - LLANDUDNO - SANDY BAY - ROCKET ROAD

 

Hi Trailers

Tomorrow's run is ON

There is no official walking group

For those wanting extra distance and a big climb, there is the option to do the Suther Peak out and back section (about 6.8 km. 650 m elevation)  This can be decided at the start

Please remember to share lifts

See you in the morning.

Gae Tompkins

0835569679

 

Rendezvous and Start Time

 

Meet at the brick-paved parking on Eustagia Way, opposite Brunia Way, Hout Bay.  

Be ready to start running at 6h30.  

Please arrive 10 mins earlier to sign the register and for a run briefing.

 

Please be aware there is limited parking, so please try and share lifts with friends, or even park away from the area and walk to the start.  Please be considerate when parking your car.

 

Directions

 

Take the Hout Bay Main Road around the circle into Victoria Road, drive thro' the robots and take the second road to the left into Edgar Road and second road on the right. Into Eustegia Way. Parking area on the left opposite Brunia Way.  

 

Route

 

The route starts with a short uphill on the brick paved road, then down to the beach and proceed onto Llandudno.  We then backtrack to Sandy Bay, enjoy the views and head southwards along the shoreline to OudeSchip Peninsula. You can spot the shipwreck Harvest Capella (1986).  This will then be followed by a steep climb on gabion steps to Rocket (Mitchells) Road.  Once on the gravel road, we run until we take the left fork at the stone cairn and head back towards our cars.   

 

Sandy Bay has been a criminal hot spot, so for safety reasons we are going to run this as a pack run.  We will run in different speed groups, but we will all regroup at the rocks at the end of Llandudno, and then again on the beach at Sandy Bay before heading onto the rocky shoreline.  Within your speed group, you will need to be sure that if you come to a turn, that the runner behind you has seen which way you go.  There will be plenty of opportunities for photographs so let's enjoy this as a social pack run.

 

Terrain and Distance

 

The terrain will include beach sand, jeep track (stony), single track, boulder-hopping and some steps to get the heart rate pumping.

 

Distance in the region of 11,5  km, with an estimated time of 2,5 hours, plus more to enjoy the view 

 

 

What to bring  – water, whistle, warm/waterproof top, sun block, camera, money for the car guard.  Make sure you have your emergency contact details on you.

Subject: TABLE MOUNTAIN TRAILERS

Hi Trailers!

Saturday 14th December sees us meet for our last official sortie of 2024. We'll run one of our old Silvermine favourites, Three Lookouts and a Peak, and celebrate the year's finale with a picnic brunch and a swim in the dam. 

Route

Starting at the car park nearest to the dam*, we'll head towards the fire lookout over Tokai, meander towards Blackburn lookout and complete the circular route via Noordhoek Peak to the Noordhoek lookout. There are options to include the Panorama path, the Crassula Path, divert to Elephant's Eye Cave and/or extend the distance with a jog down the River Walk. We'll organize group leaders and sweeps on the day. 

Rendezvous and Start Time

The main gate - the one with the SANParks checkpoint - opens at 7am so please make your way to the car park at the dam* as quickly as possible. We'll start running as soon as possible - latest 7:20am.

NB: There is no cellphone signal in Silvermine so if you are running late, there is no way to let us know. Don't be late!  

Entry fee to Silvermine is still amazing value at R42 per adult - but NB: CASH ONLY. Also remember to bring your ID book to prove you are a SA national. 

Alternatively, buy a MyGreen card at the Tokai SANParks office this week (https://www.sanparks.org/parks/table-mountain/cards-permits/my-green-card), or carry your Wild card.

Terrain and Distance

Single track, jeep track, and a little bit of rock hopping. Depending on the group you join and the whim of the day, you'll run somewhere between 8 and 12km. 

Groups

We will organise groups on the day. There will definitely be a Relaxed group (walking the ups and running the downs) adn a Walking group. Faster group TBC on Friday.

Please bring:

A whistle, WATER, a warm & waterproof/windproof top, space blanket and ICE (In  Case of Emergency) tag or card. 

If you're staying for a Christmas picnic, please bring a cooler box with your favourite snacks and cool drinks and a cozzie. Invite your home family to join you and meet your trail family!

Unfortunately we do not welcome dogs on our runs.

See you there!

Fwd: TABLE MOUNTAIN TRAILERS - SATURDAY 7TH DECEMBER 2024 - SILVERMINE TO SEA

Good Friday Trailers,

Tomorrow's run is on! The weather seems to be clearing a little, with cool, overcast cover and a gentle breeze. Perfect trail running weather!

As far as I can ascertain, there will be a medium paced group doing the 11.75km St James Peak route, and I will be leading the slow-paced 7.5km group. 

Please remember to bring your Wild Card/My Green Card or R42 cash for the entry to the parking area.

See you there, ready to run at 7.15am.  Remember there is no cell coverage so we won't know if you're running late!

Hi Trailers,

Table Mountain Trailers run this week will be a point-to-point, mostly downhill run. We'll be running from Silvermine to the sea and joining the festivities at Chardonnay Deli in Kalk Bay with the MATES crew who are running their 24km Deli to Deli. 

Route details:

We will start at Silvermine Gate 1, the dam side, so bring your Wild Card/My Green card or entry fee to gain access. From here we'll cross the road and follow the trail past the waterfall and either stay on the same route towards the sea as the MATES runners, which will only give us 7.5 km of distance, or detour to St James' Peak to increase our legstretch to about 11.5 kms. This excursion will mean we have to do some car admin. 

https://www.strava.com/routes/3298372896386344328 (Click for Strava routemap.)

Rendezvous and Start Time:  

RV at Silvermine Gate 1 (dam side) as soon as you can after the gate opens at 7.00 am. We'll start running at 7.15 am. NB: that there can be long queues to enter in summer, so please arrive early and be prepared to wait for the gatekeeper to arrive.

  
Park in the first car park on the left, directly after the pay point. Do not drive far up the road to the dam.

 

Terrain and Distance:

Mostly single track with plenty of "down" for a change!  As we approach the end, there will be running through Kalk Bay.  Please be hyper aware of the traffic which is crazy at this time of year!

Distance: approximately 11.75 kms, taking about 2 hours. 

 

Walking Group will be confirmed on Friday.

 

Please Bring: A whistle, water, a warm /waterproof/windproof top dependent on weather, space blanket and ICE (In Case of Emergency) tag or card 

 

Important: Our runs are pack runs and we may split into 2 or 3 pace groups on the day. Please remember to look behind you at every turn in the route to make sure the people behind you see which way you are going.  Please keep together and ensure that no-one is left on their own.  Routes are subject to deviation on the day.  

Unfortunately no dogs are allowed on TotalSports VOB runs.

 

 

Have a great week!

 

Regards,

Lorraine Nevin
