2 Peaks

The 2 Peaks race is a thrilling and scenic adventure that takes you through some of the most stunning mountain landscapes in South Africa, and is the perfect introduction to the 4 Peaks Mountain Challenge. Starting at the Moolmanshoek Private Game Reserve, runners will tackle the first half of the 4 Peaks Mountain Challenge route, ascending two of the four distinct peaks that make up the race. Once they reach the spectator point, runners will begin the descent down the mountain, navigating some challenging terrain as they make their way towards the junction with the panoramic route. From there, they’ll join the panoramic route and enjoy some breathtaking views as they make their way back to the finish line at Moolmanshoek. With a vertical accent of over 900m, this is a true test of strength, endurance, and mountain running skills, but with a slightly easier route designed for those new to mountain running.

The Destination

 This race exists to enlighten all those who think the Free State is that flat part on the N1 on your way to Cape Town. Come and challenge yourself with the unique and extreme 4Peaks mountain race. The race’s home is in the picturesque Moolmanshoek Private Game Reserve. This unique circular race runs along the tops of the Witteberg Mountain range forming an unforgettable horse shoe which encloses the Moolmanshoek valley.
