Description

This is a spectacular and scenic but tough mountain tour over one of the highest peaks in the "Gailtaler Alpen" - the "Spitzegel". The round course starts at the "Pressegger See" (parking lots available, elevation: 560 m) with a short but steep side trip to the "Zuchen Wasserfälle" (beautiful water cascade, dead end). Back on the course a very long and steep uphill to "Vellacher Sattel" (elevation 1850 m) mainly through the woods on single tracks with some steep gravel road parts continues this logical round.

Run route from Nottingham Road South Africa to the Sani Pass border. South Africa border with Lethoso.  This is a point-to-point up-hill run.

This route is a picture pretty route showing that landscape between Nottingham Road to Sani Pass. The route is partly tar and partly gravel road. The challenge here is to climb the famous Sani Pass at the end of the run to end the run at the South African Border between South Africa and Lesotho (Drakensberg).  This will be a pretty but brutal run for anyone who would like to challenge themselves on something new.
