Welcome to the Trail Series!
Come and join hundreds of runners having FUN from start to finish, on routes that will make you smile and long for more! Join the trail running revolution, come and run the Trail Series!
A ‘Trail Series’ consists of a number of trail races put together into a point scoring series. These individual trail races are held one week apart for a number of consecutive weeks. Each trail race consists of either a short (5-6km) or a medium length (10-13km), well marked trail route on a mixture of terrain from jeep track to single track. Each race is held at a different venue offering you the chance to run in a number of stunning locations.
Scheduled Trail Series events in 2009 start with the Cape Summer Series in January, then the Gauteng Winter Trail Series May, the Cape Winter Trail Series in August and finishing up with the Gauteng Summer Series in October/November. 2010 will see the same Trail Series schedule.
Experience the thrill of running in the magnificence of nature while testing your mind in a race environment!
The Trail Series is proudly sponsored by Montrail performance footwear, Capestorm apparel, Powerade, Men's Health & Black Diamond.
