Ultra-Trail Drakensberg

Incorporating and skirting some of the legendary features of the Southern Drakensberg such as Sani Pass, Twelve Apostles, Khanti Ridge, Hodgson’s Peaks, Garden Castle, Rhino Peak and Langalibalele’s Pass, participants in Ultra-trail® Drakensberg will experience mountain running at its very finest.  

The backbone of four of the five courses is the Giant’s Cup Trail, which is found in the Southern section of Maloti-Drakensberg Park World Heritage Site. The Park was granted this status for two factors: Outstanding natural landscapes, and its cultural wealth of Sanrock art. The Running Man, Ultra-trail® Drakensberg’s logo, is a hark to the art in the region.
