Trails

If you are a trail runner in the Western Cape, or indeed anywhere in South Africa, you have undoubtedly found your social media feeds filled with upsetting imagery of popular trails engulfed in flames over the past few weeks. From the much-loved Kogelberg Reserve of Kleinmond to the valley of Elgin, and more recently the slopes of Lions Head and Signal Hill, our incredibly hard-working fire fighters have had no end to their tireless efforts to protect and preserve, against some of the most intense wildfires in living history.

Hosted by Wildrunner, the series is the only one of its kind in South Africa. A tough, pure mountain running series made up of three separate races; the Jonkershoek Mountain Challenge, (JMC), the Helderberg Mountain Challenge (HMC) and the Marloth Mountain Challenge (MMC). Each event consists of a Lite, Extreme and Ultra distance race. To complete the series, participants must compete in the same distance category at each race.
