ABOUT
THE SKYRUNNING SERIES 2022
THE EVENTS:
Summit Events is proud to announce the launch of a second edition of the Skyrunning Series in conjunction with the International Skyrunning Federation. First up is the Langeberg SkyRace® on 6 August, followed by Mont Rochelle SkyRace® on 3 September.
LANGEBERG SKYRACE®
The Langeberg SkyRace® is situated just outside the picturesque town of Robertson in the Western Cape. Robertson is two hours from Cape Town and has some of the best wineries in South Africa. The local peak Arangieskop (1696m) is the home of the race and is a local legend that towers over the area. The Race Village is situated at Die Laaitjie, a farm near the Dassieshoek Nature Reserve which is 7km from Robertson.
MONT ROCHELLE SKYRACE®
Mont Rochelle SkyRace® starts in the famous Cape wine-growing region of Franschhoek. The Mont Rochelle route is a Cape Classic and a firm favourite with trail runners.
The race starts with a relentless climb from the town to Du Toits Peak (1419m). From there it's a fast-flowing descent into the valley to the Uitkyk Aid Station before another climb up to Perdekop (1575m) the highest peak on the route, where snow could greet runners. From Perdekop it's time to lock in those downhill legs for a long and technical descent into the finish in Franschhoek.
