This unique outdoor experience takes place on the iconic 5-day Giant’s Cup Hiking Trail, in the Maloti-Drakensberg Park, a World Heritage Site. It’s the perfect weekend getaway with friends or your partner, where you can run or hike by day, and relax around the fireplace at night. It’s trail running and hiking done in style!
Each entry includes three nights shared accommodation at Premier Resort Sani Pass, a deluxe goodie bag filled with multiple quality garments from The North Face and other locally sourced personalised gifts. Breakfast and dinner at the hotel are included, as well as a healthy and delicious lunch at the finish line each day. Every runner and hiker is treated to complimentary sundowners and massages at the end of each day’s running or hiking, as well as a cheese and wine evening and prize giving dinner on the Saturday night.
There are two distances on offer, the Giant’s Cup Full (30km + 32km) and Lite (15km + 12km), and winners must be fit and able to complete the distance of their choosing come race weekend. Winners are responsible for their own travel to and from the event, and must be available for the race dates.
Race Weekend | 24 – 25 May 2024
Should the winner already have entered the event, they may choose to either have their entry fees refunded, or have the prize transferred to an athlete of their choice.
