Glen Aggy Trail Run 2023
Sat 7 Oct 2023 @ Amsterdam, Mpumalanga

Organiser
Glen Aggy Agri & Glen Vleis

We would like to invite any active and adventurous person to come and experience the beauty of our family farm based just outside the small town of Amsterdam (yes you read that right) in the Highveld of Mpumalanga, South Africa.

Our routes run across flowy hills and spring clean rivers that provide a home to all our farm animals. If you are looking for a challenging 23km, a lekker 10km or just a fun 5km hike/fun run then our trail run is just for you.

Hosted by our butchery, Glen Vleis and this year we teamed up with TWK Agri as our Main Sponsor, to bring you a day filled with fun for the whole family.

Free Funky Sox for first 100 paid online entries.

You can also purchase extra pairs of the Funky Sox if you wish with your entry.

Routes:

5km Hike/Fun Run

Our 5km hike/fun run is exactly what it says. All members of the family can come and enjoy the beautiful scenery of our farm and enjoy the open air. The route will start and finish at Glen Vleis, with 129m of vertical climbing, lots of jeep track and some single track, the route is just challenging enough to get all the muscles working. There will be one waterpoint on the route, so no need to bring your own water and snacks. The route is rocky, so strollers are unfortunately not an option.

10km Trail Run

Our 10km route is aimed at any runner looking to have a great time. The route will start and finish at Glen Vleis, with 280m of vertical climbing, lots of jeep track, and spectacular views of our farm. It is going to be one of the most beautiful routes that you have done. There will be three waterpoints on the route, so no need to bring your own water and snacks.

23km Trail Run

Our 23km route is aimed at the avid trail runner and will be a tough challenge to all runners. The route will start and finish at Glen Vleis, with 562m of vertical climbing, lots of jeep track, and some single track, water crossings and breath-taking views of our farm. It is going to be a route that will stay with you for some time. It is a tough run so keep that in mind for your training leading up the race. There will be six waterpoints on the route to keep you replenished and motivated.
