With inter-provincial travel now open, we are extremely excited about our Dream Adventure Weekend event for 2020, taking place at the Tala Collection Game Reserve. We are offering a chance to get out of the city and spend the weekend trail running, MTB riding, braaing in the bush and much more.
Wander through exquisite nature, run alongside an abundance of wild game and boost those endorphins while you’re at it! As if that is not enough, know that you are doing your part to keep the farm in business.
As Thursday is Heritage day, participants are welcomed to take advantage of the long weekend, and book accommodation at the Tala Collection Game Reserve. Discounted accommodation packages are available to all race entrants and their families. To find out more about accommodation packages, please mail us on reservations@tala.co.za or call us on 0317818000
If you are joining for the day and taking part in the run/ ride separately, we welcome you to make a day of it. We will have braai and picnic facilities, food stalls, coffee and craft beer available at the finish line. To book a pre-packed picnic basket (including a blanket, umbrella, food and drinks), please purchase on the entry portal. Bring your friends and families along and take advantage of a day out under the African skies. Spectator rates are reduced to R60 per adult, and R40 applies to pensioners, and kids under 12.
Proof of registration is required at the gate. Please print out a copy, or download a copy to your phone.

Batching
Runners and riders will be batched based on the times they submit upon registration. Final batches will be communicated the day prior to the trail run via mail. Batches will go off every 15 minutes.
COVID-19 compliance
We will do our part to keep you safe on the day with additional medics, hand sanitiser and temperature testing. As much as it is our responsibility to keep you safe, you also have a part to play: entrants should practice social distancing at all times. Do not attend if you are feeling sick, have been in contact with someone who is feeling sick, or someone who has tested positive in the last 14 days.
