Restoring the indigenous fauna and flora in order to re-establish the natural Highveld biodiversity is our primary focus and we ask all athletes to respect the natural habitat.

Routes:
With 4 distances to choose from, we are able to guarantee a secure and special experience for every level of athlete, and with varied terrain from forests to mountains, as well as being home to over 20 species of wild animals, including rhino, Cradle Moon is unique.

42Km
The 42km Marathon distance is not for the faint-hearted. It’s technical and challenging. The route features technical climbs and steep descends, forest sections and beautiful open savannah stretches.

23Km
The race features extra river frontage, multiple forests and rocky sections. The route winds away from the lake in the direction of Beyers Naude Drive, before heading back down to the new “Spookhuis” section.

14Km
Fast-flowing tracks early into the route serve as the perfect way to get the blood pumping. This is the base route around the lodge with the best views of the cradle of humankind. Look out for giraffe and zebra on the trail.

6Km
Non-Technical being for those who want an easier ride. This is the perfect outing for the entire family to enjoy without having to break a sweat
