The Hi-Tec Walker Bay Outdoor, a long weekend of sports and entertainment festivities in Hermanus, is launching a road marathon alongside its existing half-marathon.
Set to take place on Saturday 29 April, the marathon route will showcase the spectacular scenery of Hermanus. It will also act as another cornerstone event, along with the ocean swim, mountain-bike race and triathlon.
The eighth edition of the multi-sport festival will take place from 27 April to 1 May. The action will begin on Thursday with registration before Friday, with the LedLenser Twilight Run heralding the start of the sport events. The marathon, half marathon and See & Sand Swim Run Jump take place on Saturday, which offers athletes a selection of trail running events in the Fernkloof Nature Reserve.
Sunday will play host to the long- and short-distance mountain bike races in the beautiful Hemel-en-Aarde valley as well as the Open Water Swims and Hi-Tec Dash4Cash. This year the Dash4Cash will see a very great activation where the public can also get involved.
Monday sees South Africa’s most scenic triathlon events starting in the Old Harbour before the weekend concludes with a Junior triathlon for the future WBO athletes.
