Spend Heritage Day, Friday 24 September 2021 at Rickety Bridge Winery. We’ll start at the day with a 5km FUNdation RUN in between the vineyards with a few wine stops on the way. Once you have finished the 5km fun run, sit back, relax and order a breakfast for champions from our braai-inspired menu. Think boerie rolls, hamburgers, ribs and more. At 10h30 we’ll start with a lucky draw on the Wine Tasting Centre lawn, that includes the following incredible prizes:

Kiddies are more than welcome to enter as well and we'll spoil them with a complimentary kiddies pairing at the Wine Tasting Centre after the race. The kiddies pairing includes peach ice tea⁠, Crème Soda⁠, strawberry flavoured milk⁠, a marshmallow puff⁠, sour worms and wine gums⁠ (all to the value of R80).
