3YO Pop-up Trail centre at Dornier Homestead

Dornier Wine Estate is situated at the foot of Stellenbosch Mountain in the famous Winelands.

With single track sections, jeep track, some sand, some forest and lots of natural beauty, this will be a challenging trail run. After all we've been through, you get to run on the trails, back to nature.  We help by making sure the route is in a secure environment, clearly marked, and safe.

Permanently marked 5km (flat and fast) and 10km (hard and hilly) routes

There will be 8 weekly Locals4Locals runs at Dornier

Hopefully we will start many more events and activities from the 3YO Trail Centre in the future like:

• Night runs (on the amazing single tracks)
• Training sessions (run and bike)
• Mtb tours
• Guided road rides
• Bike&Wine tours
• Bike rentals (road and Mtb)

With the Covid 19 Virus still going strong and our country as well as other countries around the world still LOCKDOWN we are unfortunately not able to host our normal events. We are hoping that things will change at about September. In the mean time we have to keep things going and come up with some innovative ideas seeing that there are so many virtual runs to choose from.

Entry fee

We have kept the entry fee low to give most of you and your family the opportunity to run . If you can't do all of the runs at least do one of them. Oh kids under 10 can do the Locals4Locals runs for free!

If you enter and complete all 8 Locals4Locals runs you will become a Dornier Donatus member (Wine Club).

5km => R30  / 10km=>R50

Take note:

·It is a fun Strava timed Time Trial. A fantastic way to get in practice runs and prepare for future events and races. Time Trials are when you race against the clock, not against other athletes. Normally as an individual or in small groups.  Its a great way to train. Anybody can enter, but you can only win some fun prizes if your run is uploaded to Strava.

·You can start at any time between 8:00 and 10:30 (if time slot available)

·You can run as fast as you want or take it easy and enjoy the spectacular views.

·You do not have to send me proof of your distances, we will see your time on Strava. Ofcourse you are allowed to run / walk the Locals4Locals runs without a Strava timing

The run is held mostly on the jeep tracks and gravel roads as the single tracks are used by the Wannabees mountain bikers.

The 3YO Trail Centre at Dornier offers a relaxed and chilled area to sit down after your race and to enjoy a some nice Dornier wines.

Remember, there are very limited places available

Lets get through this time by staying healthy and safe.

NB: You must adhere to the governments Lockdown rules as well as the rules of the venue!!
