Immerse yourself in the wild heart of the Lowveld at the Tomjachu Trail Run 2025, taking place on Saturday, 29 November 2025, at the Tomjachu Bush Retreat, just outside Nelspruit, Mpumalanga.
Set within the Tomjachu Nature Reserve, this exclusive trail experience takes runners through breathtaking Lowveld landscapes — from ancient wagon paths and granite hills to lush bushveld and the dramatic Tomjachu Gorge. Along the way, you’ll encounter wild fig trees, open plains, and even roaming giraffes, all while tackling a course that perfectly blends technical climbs, flowing gravel roads, and the rewarding ascent of Zebra Heights, offering panoramic valley views.
