Route Description:
This most scenic and unique race is run through the Crocodile Gorge Conservancy on the old Mara Road. The course starts with a steep and challenging seven-kilometre climb as you run up the Crocodile Gorge Mountains and onto the plateau. There is some respite here as the route flattens out before the steep, clattering descent towards Kaapmuiden. The race crosses the De Kaap River in the closing kilometres before the finish. This exceptionally scenic route is tarred all the way.
This is one of the favourite races run in the Lowveld and has always attracted a large field. In addition to the Boulders, the organisers host a 10-kilometre out and back run. There is something for the whole family to enjoy. Both the start and the finish venues are situated before the Nkomazi Toll. Runners coming from Nelspruit do not need to go through the tollgates. If you want to make a weekend of it, contact the Nelspruit Tourist Information at 013-7551988 for details of accommodation in the area.
