Saturday 21 August 2021 we head to the Republic of Hout Bay for a mix of trail and road.

Route details

Meet at the parking at the bottom of Chappies, by the Velocity Gym.

We warm up with a trot up the road to the start of the trail at East Fort. From the shortcut trail we join the jeep track until we get the split to the higher contour path where we may split into groups, those who don't like heights or don't want the steeper climb can continue along the jeep track.  We all end up at Blackburn Ravine and follow the contour path towards Chapmans Peak.  Along the single track we are treated to magnificent views (weather permitting) across the bay.

At approximately 7km we can decide whether to summit Chapmans Peak or head down to Chapmans Peak drive, popping out by the "ticket checker".  From here we have a leg stretch on the tar(approx 4km) back to our cars.

Please remember this a pack run led by committee, and its important that we look out for each other.  

Rendezvous and Start Time

RV in the parking area 07:25 ready to start at 07:30 (sunrise-ish).

Terrain and Distance

A mix of jeep track, single track and tar.  

Distance: +- 12 kms taking about 2h00 - 2h30mins for Medium Group (longer if we go up Chapmans Peak)

Fast Group

Will follow a similar route with a possible 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 (remember a trail 12km can take longer than a road 12km), a warm & waterproof/windproof top, space blanket and ICE (In case of Emergency) tag or card.

Unfortunately no dogs are allowed on our runs.

Have a great week!

Rendezvous and start time

First entrance to Silvermine on the right coming from Tokai. Gates to the reserve open at 7.45 - 8:00am but the queues can be long so get there early and parking is limited, so please consider sharing lifts.  We'll meet at 8:15am at the 'cyclist' parking, which is up the road and to the right after the gate.  We will start running as soon as possible thereafter.

 

Please note there is an entrance fee of R35 for SA Citizens (think it's cash only and remember to bring your ID), unless you have Wild Card or Green Card

Route
We start off with some single tracks taking us onto Steenberg ridge.  Thereafter we make our way to the fire lookout, and potentially an out and back to Elephant's eye cave..  We then make our way to the Blackburn Ravine lookout, and here the group splits.  You can either do the Panoramic route or go back down to the gravel road and do the Crassula path.  After this we take a nice single track back to the cars for the shorter route, or for the longer route, down to the Old Wagon Road and finish off with the River Walk and back to the cars.  I will post a map/route on Friday's email

Terrain and Distance.   Some undulating bush trails and gravel tracks, as well as some nice single tracks.

Distance will be approx. 10 km for the shorter route and 15 km for the longer route.  I am guessing in the region of 2hrs 30 mins

Our runs are pack runs and will may split into 2 or 3 pace groups on the day.  I will manage a relaxed group and do the Crassula path

What to bring  

Water, whistle, warm/windproof top, rain jacket - weather dependent, space blanket, ICE ID - either on your phone, bracelet/tag, card in your backpack.

Please make sure that you are carrying the right equipment, enough food and water.

Important: 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. 

PS  Sorry no dogs allowed on VOB runs

Have a great week
