TABLE MOUNTAIN TRAILERS Saturday 22nd November 2025 HOUT BAY - LLANDUDNO - SANDY BAY

Hi Trailers!

 

A return to the beach with a run from Eustagia Way (Hout Bay) to the big rocks at Llandudno, across to Sandy Bay, and up the hill to return via Rocket Road. 

 

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 through 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 

 

Walking group:  To be confirmed on Friday

 

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.

TABLE MOUNTAIN TRAILERS Table Mountain Trailers Saturday 1 November - Diagonal

Hello Trailers

 

This week we will be starting from Theresa Ave in Camps Bay.

 

Route:

 

We start at Theresa Ave and climb up to meet the pipetrack and turn left to find the Diagonal path. After a steep climb up (hopefully with a bit of water trickling past us), there are many options depending on time constraints.  Instead of turning right at the top of Diagonal we will explore some of the gorgeous paths at the top before descending via Woody Ravine.  From there it is 2km jog along the pipetrack down to the cars.  Allow 2.5 – 3 hours for this route.

 

Rendezvous:

 

We meet in Theresa Ave (see below for directions) at 6.25am with the aim to start our run at 6.30am. 

Please adhere to parking restrictions (yellow and red lines) and be considerate to all residents. Parking is limited.  Park along the seaside and make sure that your car is facing the correct direction.

 

 

Terrain and distance:

 

This is mostly single track with a bit a of jeep track at the start and end. This route does have some exposure and a little rock scrambling, some steep climbs and descents, but the views are definitely worth it!

 

The distance is around 10km and there are ample routes for those who want a bit of extra distance

 

For those who would prefer a less challenging route with less elevation, the relaxed group will be doing the Missing Link. 

Please note that the relaxed group will meet at the bottom of Theresa Avenue at the start of the Missing Link route.

 

 

Directions:

 

Coming from town, pass the turnoff to the cable car at the Kloof Nek circle and continue down towards Camps Bay, taking the 3rd road to the left (Fiskaal Road). Follow this road up the hill - it winds up and around and becomes Francolin Ave and then Theresa Ave.

 

Remember:

 

Water, Whistle, Warm/windproof/rain top, ICE information and a snack.

 

Groups


This is a pack run with regular regroups, and we will split into speed groups with leaders and sweeps on the morning. 


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.   
Leaders of each group will ensure that no-one is left behind. Please keep the groups together and ensure that no-one is left on their own. 

 

Dogs


Please note that K-Way VOB club rules do not permit dogs on our runs.

 

Look forward to seeing you all on Saturday.

Any queries welcome.

Hi Trailers,

Can you believe it's October already? The mornings are bright, the air carries that first hint of summer, and Cape Town is preparing for the tourist season—short sleeves, sunblock, and all!

This Saturday, we're in for another great trail treat: we'll meet at the Maiden's Cove Tidal Pool Braai Area in Clifton. From there, we'll climb up to Lion's Head via the Glen trail, sweep along to the far end of Signal Hill to tag the beacon, and then enjoy a gentle meander back down through the Glen. The route is around 11.5 km, with the option to push a little further up the Lion's Neck if you're craving extra distance and elevation. Expect sparkling Atlantic views, fynbos scents in the air, and that unbeatable Mother City backdrop.

Here's the Strava link from the last time we tackled this route: 👉 https://strava.app.link/DgUw4MVdiQb

📍 Meeting point: Maiden's Cove Tidal Pool Car Park (coordinates: -33.9445348, 18.3757808)

Start time: 6:30am sharp – please arrive and sign in by 6:25am

👣 Walking group: TBC Friday

🌥️ Weather: Cool, mostly cloudy, around 13–15 °C, with a light breeze. Perfect!


What to bring:

  • Plenty of water

  • Sunblock and weather-appropriate layers

  • Whistle, space blanket, and your ICE tag/card

  • A cozzie + towel if you're brave enough for a chilly post-run dip in the tidal pool 🌊

🚫 Please remember: no dogs on our runs.

📖 All the usual T&Cs apply – see the blog for details: www.tablemountaintrailers.org.za

Let's kick off the summer season in true Cape Town style—views, sweat, and maybe even a swim!

See you Saturday,
Lorraine

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.
