Jonkershoek Mountain Challenge

The unrivaled alpine-like landscape of the Jonkershoek mountains makes this the most spectacular big mountain run in the Western Cape.

The Jonkershoek Valley is without a doubt one of the most beautiful mountain scenes in the Western Cape. Massive turrets and cliffs of orange-faced quartzite hold fortress over a collection of rambling mountain streams and waterfalls. It’s so magnificent that it’s impossible to ignore, the essence of the place seeping under your skin into the fabric of your senses.

With the kind permission of Cape Nature, we have been given access to the wilderness area hiking trails, and together with the MTO tracks and mountain bike trails, the Wildrunner team have strung together what is arguably one of the most incredible mountain trail running challenges on the calendar.
