Entries for the 2020 Ultra-Trail Drakensberg close on 31 March.

THE 2020 Ultra-Trail Drakensberg provides runners of all abilities the opportunity to enjoy everything that the internationally renowned Maloti Drakensberg World Heritage Site has to offer.

The 160km starts in the Mountain Kingdom of Lesotho where it traverses 70km of high altitude terrain before joining into the 100km course at the top of Sani Pass and following the next 90km to Bushman’s Nek.

The 160km, 100km, 62km, 30km, 21km events are entirely on mountain trails (excepting the short Sani Pass Road sections of the 160km and 100km events) to ensure a pure trail running experience which is further emphasised by an altitude bandwidth of 1600m-2865m.

Runners will enjoy the company of some of the flagship fauna of the area including the mighty Eland and the critically endangered Bearded Vulture while the presence of the ancient San people will surround them in the shape of their world famous Rock Art.
