WINTER TRAIL RUN presented by Sportsmans Warehouse
L'Avenir Estate – Sunday, 26 July 2026
Winter is a great time to enjoy the trails at L'Avenir Estate. With mild winter weather and sunshine expected this Sunday, the 6km and 11km routes offer a scenic run through vineyards, orchards and beautiful Winelands countryside. Thanks to the later start, there's no need for an early alarm—just come and enjoy a relaxed Sunday morning on the trails before unwinding at the estate afterwards.
This beautiful French-owned wine estate has a long history of producing exceptional wines and offers visitors a unique Winelands experience with fine wines, delicious food and luxury accommodation.
