TABLE MOUNTAIN TRAILERS Next run Sat 11th July - Constantia Nek to the dams

 

 

Hi Trailers

This week we will run from Constantia Nek and visit the 5 dams, going via Cecelia waterfall

Route

 

We will run from the Nek parking along the gravel contour path until we reach the path and steps that will take us to Cecelia waterfall.  From just after the waterfall we will head up Cecelia ridge until we meet the concrete road near the overseers cottage   From here there are a few choices, but potentially turning right and then taking Smuts track and running Ash Valley to Hely Hutchinson dam and then back along the road with another little detour before returning to the parking

 

Expecting about 15 km, with just under 800 m of elevation  Thinking about 3 hours

Warning:  Trail running is inherently more dangerous than road running.  It may take 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.
