ROUTE DESCRIPTION:
Maweni is a trail runners’ paradise boasting a huge variety of single track that will satisfy every type of runner or walker. This event is a great opportunity to experience something more the wild side of life, and its located just a stone throw from Pietermaritzburg.
The 7km course has been designed to be quite easy. It’s for those who prefer shorter distances or who are just starting out. There are no major tricky sections and incorporates some fantastic single track through the nature reserve to finish the race.
The 14km is more of a challenge and routes over a fairly tough climb. The downhill trail along the cliff tops looking into the Umngeni Valley is incredibly beautiful. This course always gets rave reviews across the finish line!
Entry fee includes R10 donation to the community trust.
