Clarens SANPark Golden Gate 4in1  42.2km - 21.1km - 10km - 5km FunRun

This Clarens SANPark Golden Gate 4in1 draws its name from the famous Golden Gate National Park just outside Clarens. This National park has some of the rare wildlife species and boasts of rock formations and incredible sunrise and sunsets. This Marathon therefore allows individuals, couples and families to take a weekend away, enjoy the wildlife and participate in the race.

Whether you choose the marathon or the Fun Run distance, the Clarens SANPark Golden Gate 4in1 is more than just a run.

Rather, it is a spectacular journey through this stunning National Park. The chance to run alongside the mountains is an experience unlike any other, but it is far from the only breath taking moment you’ll enjoy along the way.

All distances are run on tarred roads through the National Park. This allows you as a runner to spend less time checking the track in front of you and more time taking in the spectacular scenery. Walkers are also welcome and there is also a fun run. Medals are awarded to all finishers.

This is one marathon you can’t afford to miss.

Event will be closed for online entries on Sunday 25 September 2022 at 8pm.

Detailed rules are available on https://www.athleticsfs.co.za or on request from the organizers. Do not litter. Dispose of sachets and cups responsibly by using the boxes provided or by carrying them to the finish. Report offenders to the referees. Temporary licence numbers - R70
