Due to the boom in trail running over the past few years the Two Oceans Marathon race office were prompted to introduce its very own trail run through the forests above UCT offering inspiring vistas over the peninsula on Good Friday morning.
Both the Short and the Long runs start at the UCT grounds and take runners along the lower slopes of Devil’s Peak and nearby forests. Open to beginners and experienced trail runners, the challenging routes offer runners varied terrain with steep ascents and descents.
Race Distances:

LONG Trail run 22 kilometres (13.6 miles)
Please note that the minimum age for the 10km is 14 years of age and the minimum age for the 22km is 16 years of age.
