The Voet van Afrika Marathon is the southernmost marathon in Africa – the toughest race with the warmest heart.
The route is unique taking you through farming areas, gravel road and jeep tracks across the mountain with Fynbos views – the last stretch from Napier is on tar road to Bredasdorp Sport ground. Experience the clear country air, golden wheat fields and striking Fynbos during this marathon. And let the warm Overberg community spirit and hospitality carry you, every step of this memorable race.
The intention of the Voet van Afrika Marathon is essentially to enable people to unleash their energies to determine their strengths over their own perceived limitations versus elements of nature. The route environment creates a challenging event which appeals to those who want to test and develop their stamina.
