Description

Our flagship race is 164kms in length, with a vertical ascent of 5638m and 7015m of descent.

Athletes have the chance to run through the Mountain Kingdom of Lesotho, the roof of Southern Africa, on trails so remote and pristine, they are only accessible on horseback in some areas. Equally exhilarating are experiences like running through the night, summiting the highest peak South of Kilimanjaro, Thabana Ntlenyana (3,482 metres/11,424 ft), and the added challenge of spending the first 70kms running in an altitude band almost entirely above 3000m. This race is beautiful, extreme and unlike anything else Southern Africa has to offer.
