Run the Rhenoster Trail Run/Walk 2026

Welcome to Run the Rhenoster 2026!

An unforgettable trail run/walk with a purpose—championing wildlife protection and habitat conservation in the heart of the Crocodile River Reserve.

Back for its fifth year, this exclusive, once-a-year event offers just 250 tickets, giving participants a rare chance to explore one of Gauteng’s last remaining Egoli Granite Grasslands—a critically endangered ecosystem, right on Joburg’s doorstep.

Whether you're a seasoned trail runner or a Sunday stroller, Run the Rhenoster invites you to slow down, take it all in, and reconnect with nature. Along the way, you’ll pass ancient rock formations, iconic landmarks like Rhenosterkop and Koppie Alleen, and—if you're lucky—spot some of the free-roaming wildlife that call this wild space home.

This is more than a run—it’s a movement for conservation.

R100 from every ticket goes directly to conservation and wildlife vet services in the reserve, helping us protect this special place for generations to come.

Stay in the loop!
