Kinetic Adventure 25km

The Kinetic Adventure 25km is an adventure race suitable for all levels of fitness.

Teams of two will complete an unmarked course of approximately 25 km with a aid of a map, visiting checkpoints on foot, kayak and mountain bike.

This event is ideal to introduce new teams to Adventure Racing, with fast racing between the top teams at the front.

RACE DISTANCE

The race will cover approximately 25 km’s.

  • Duration between 2 and 4 hours.
  • Approx. 17 km cycling and 6 km running/trekking and 2 km kayaking.

RACE DISCIPLINES

  • Mountain biking – teams should be prepared for a range of riding including single track, steep hills, gravel roads and sealed roads.
  • Trekking – Will involve traveling by foot through rugged terrain.
  • Kayaking –  Kayaking will be on a dam / flat water. Kayaks and paddles will be provided by race organizers. Fluid Synergy kayaks will be used. These kayaks are very stable and suitable for novices. Teams who are unsure about their swimming ability should bring their own life jackets.
  • Orienteering – basic orienteering is an extremely important part of the race. The course is not marked and teams are required to navigate using the map. If you can read a street map you will be fine.
