EVENT SOLD OUT
The inaugural Somkhanda Trail Experience promises to be a unique WILD EXPERIENCE. It is set to take place at Somkhanda Community Game Reserve, a Big 5 reserve in the heart of Zululand. Each day will consist of three groups of 10 running the three courses on a rotational basis. They will never be more than one group on a route at any given time this is in preparation of ensuring that we make provision for social distancing in relation to Covid-19 protocols. A game drive vehicle and a ranger will accompany each group as a security measure as well as providing refreshments should runners require them. The event is limited to 30 runners but there will be space for families to join for the weekend.
