ROUTE DESCRIPTION

10KM MAP

SATELLITE/GOOGLE MAP VIEW

This race has a similar profile to its half marathon ‘big brother’. The route is demanding with the first few kilometres consisting of a steady, upward climb on tar roads through Bredasdorp. You then head out onto gravel roads through Fynbos and the farmlands on the outskirts of town.

The middle half of the race is mainly downhill, giving you the opportunity to enjoy the scenery. But be warned: make sure you have some energy to spare for the steep hill as you enter Bredasdorp.

Once you’re over the hill, take it easy because a few others are around the corner The last kilometre to the Bredasdorp High School is the most difficult but you will enjoy the refreshments available on the school sports grounds, (where you finish on grass).

Normal road running shoes are advised for this race.
