From the Rhodes Mem lower parking we will head up to the Top parking then take the stairs up to the Contour path. Once on the Contour path we continue towards Kirstenbosch until the Big Rock, before the 400 stairs, where we take a left down onto the cycle path. From here we head to Woodcutters after which we take a left through the hole in the fence and back down onto the Jeep track. We then take the track past the quarry and back to the start where we will be well placed to cheer on the Ultra runners as they are about to finish.

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.
