Route:
Both routes are a crossover of tar, trail and single track through the Tokai Greenbelts. (Trail shoes are not required.) The routes are not suitable for prams or wheelchairs and no dogs are allowed.
From its start in 1993 until 2014, the 16 km race was held at the Chrysalis Academy and ran up the mountain through the SANParks Tokai Forest Plantation. Unfortunately a mountain fire devastated this route in 2015 and the race has since been held at the Cape Academy of Maths and Science in Firgrove Way. The route through the Tokai Greenbelts has proven to be very popular and is now the official new route. An 8 km option was added in 2016.
Online entries are available through Entrytime until 15 December: https://www.entrytime.com/running-events/
Online entries will incur a 10% administration fee.
Enter in person or collect numbers at Sportsman’s Warehouse Rondebosch on Saturday 21 December between 10am – 4pm.
Entries and number collection also available on the day from 5:15am – 6:15am.

There is a strict no-litter policy in place and NO WATER SACHETS on the route. Please carry your own water. There will be SELF-HELP water refill stations at approximately every 4kms.
