To: Tmtrailers <tmtrailers@googlegroups.com>

Hi Trailers,

We haven't been to Cape Point for a long time so let's head down south to check it out!

 

Route

Starting at the Buffelsbaai tidal pool, we'll run along the upper single track towards Cape Point continuing right through to the parking at Cape Point lighthouse. Detour to the lighthouse is an option. We cross the parking and take the single track to the right that leads down to Dias Beach (we can detour down there to visit). There is also a detour to a view spot before Dias Beach – well worth visiting.

Back on the single track we run down to the road and take this along the coast. At Pegram's Point we get back on to some single track and run along the coast to Platboom. Here we turn up and take the road up the hill and back to Bufflesbaai.

For those who want a shorter option, cross the first tar road and turn right at the next intersection (jeep track) and follow the track down to Platboom. About 10kms

I've taken the below map from my Strava activity history here: https://www.strava.com/activities/7140469982

This was the relaxed group's timing and I think the longer, faster group may have added on a few kms at the toe end of the peninsula, from memory.

Rendezvous and start time

The park opens at 6h00am in March. We will meet at Buffelsbaai tidal pool parking* and start running at 7h00am. (There is no reception so we won't know if you are running late.)

Please make contact with me by Friday morning if you would like to join a lift club leaving Muizenberg at about 5.45am.  Also let us know if you have a My Green card and are willing to exchange a clip for a coffee.

*(Take the road to left after the Buffelsfontein Information centre turn off.)

 

Terrain & Distance

The route is a combination of single track and tar. There is a climb at about 5km (150m) but the route is generally very runnable.

10km/14km or longer if you run to the lighthouse.

 

What to bring 

Entry fee is now R105 for SA citizens, credit or debit cards only, or flash your Wild or Green card and your SA ID.

Water, whistle, a space blanket and your ICE information. The weather can be different in the park. Please come prepared for wind, mist, sun or rain!

Please check the weather before you set off from home and pack the appropriate waterproof/warm gear.

A picnic or a swim at Buffelsbaai or Venus pools afterwards is an option. Store all food in the car out of sight of baboons while we are out running.

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

 

Hope you can make it!

TABLE MOUNTAIN TRAILERS - SATURDAY 22 March 2025 Silvermine East from Kalk Bay - Echo Valley

Hi Trailers

 

This Saturday we'll explore Silvermine East starting from Kalk Bay station parking.

Route

We meet at the parking at Kalk Bay station opposite the Norman Road steps.  We follow the various steps up to Boyes Drive and wind our way up to Weary Willy's. Here we go straight up Echo Valley, turning left and then right at the top to do some flowing downhill running down Dead Man's path. We follow the jeep track to visit the waterfall,  and run toward Gate 2 turning right before the gate to climb up to Fat Lady cave. From there we descend to the jeep track turning right to Junction Pool. There are many routes back.

We can detour to Muizenberg cave on the way or turn left at junction Pool towards Nellie's Pool; pass Nellie's Pool and then left down the single track through Mimetes Valley (or keep straight on the jeep track). We don't go down to Bailey's Kloof but keep an eye out for the turning to the right turning to get back to the jeep track. Follow the jeep track back to Weary Willy's and back down to Kalk Bay

I have attached a map of the Silvermine East route, showing the route, as well as a GPX file and snip shot of the alternative, shorter route – which was 11 km

Plenty of nice options for coffee/breakfast/swim after the run

Rendezvous and start time

Park in the Kalk Bay station parking next to Cape to Cuba opposite Wetsuit Warehouse before 6h45am ready to start running at 7h00am

Terrain & Distance

The route is a combination of jeep track and single track starting with a climb up to the top of Echo Valley.

The long route is around 14km and the alternative route documented is around 12km. There are many shorter options.  The exact route will be decided by the group leader/group decision on the day.

What to bring 

Water,  whistle, warm top, a space blanket and your ICE information

Please check the weather before you set off from home and pack the appropriate waterproof/warm gear.

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

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

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.
