Runners are required to record their individual time using their own devices. Once you cross the finish line, please submit your wrist band with your timing into the bowl for our virtual lucky draw. Timings will be emailed to runners the following day for Discovery Vitality Point submissions.
General Information Venue
This is a majestic venue located on the banks of the Crocodile River & right on your door-step. It’s a privately-owned game reserve so you get to explore over 1000-hectares of wilderness.
Route – as there are no extreme climbs or immensely difficult terrain, Wild Africa Experiences have rated the route a 3.5/5 (5 been the most difficult)
Participants will receive a branded crystal beer glass as your medal at the finish line with a well deserved ice-cold complimentary craft beer on us (only for runners 18 years & older)
