Neethlingshof

TrailFun Holiday Series 5 of 5

Run with a view

It’s hard to run when you are holding your breath. With views like this taking your breath away, it is something you will have to be conscience of.

Neethlingshof has the most amazing 5 km and 10 km routes – through forests, vines – it’s everything you could want in a trail run.

The 5 km is a beautiful entry level run. It’s an easy start through the vines and you finish by crossing the dam and running through the forest on the bank.

The 10 km is a bit more challenging with an awesome forest section coming out at the top of the farm then downhill to the finish.

Relaxed Run

If you are looking for a fun, relaxed day running or walking through a wine farm then this is for you. Choose your own Start Time, anytime from 07.00 am to 09.30 am. No groups, no crowds, just you and nature … and you can sleep in late.
