The Namaqualand Trail run is a 20km loop on the Roodebergskloof Trail. The race starts with a tough 12km ascent to the summit of the Northern Cape's highest peak the Rooiberg, followed by an 8km sprint down the valley to the finish line. At the finish you will be welcomed by the cool waters of the farm dam and some local 'kos' provided by the ladies in the 'kookskerm'.

The route will lead runners and hikers alike through a beautiful South African setting, which depending on the rains before will be dotted with flowers!

There are limited entries available for the long route in order to limit the impact of the runners on the trail. The flower run is a unique event aimed at creating encouraging tourism in the area as well as showcasing the natural beauty of the Namakwaland!

There is also a shorter 10km route that does a scenic loop at the bottom of the valley.
