Witteberg Mountain Challenge | 26 September 2026

Your Race. Your Pace. Make It Yours.

WMC isn’t your average trail run.
This is where grit meets gradient, and runners find themselves somewhere between the clouds and the soul of the Eastern Cape.

Tucked into the dramatic Witteberg mountains, starting at the Lady Grey Country Club, this is a race that gives as much as it takes.
You’ll run hard, climb higher — and then get wrapped in the small-town warmth only Lady Grey can offer.

⸻

What to Expect:
• Raw mountain trails with views worth every uphill
• Proper Eastern Cape vibes — think local food stalls, music, and lekker people
• Kids’ entertainment so the whole family can enjoy the day
• A Friday night welcome with food, firelight, and a few race nerves

Today we didn’t just run the Witteberg — we carved a line through it.
50km of raw mountain terrain. Endless climbs. River crossings. High-altitude grasslands stretching to the horizon.

This was not race day.
This was exploration.
Plotting the route step by step, GPS locked, legs burning, hearts full — turning wild Witteberg lines into an ultra-distance challenge worthy of respect.

From remote valleys to exposed ridgelines, every kilometre reminded us why these mountains demand grit, humility, and a deep love for the trail.

The route is now mapped.
The challenge is real.
And the Witteberg is ready.

⛰️ Ultra distance. Untamed terrain. Epic views. ⛰️
