Keiskie Explore Trail Run
Our trail grading: RED 8B
Distance: 7.5km
Extremeness: Lots of off-road, bushes and dryness
Location: Keiskie Farm, Calvinia, South Africa
Joggers: Only me
I've run all the 'known' roads on the Keiskie farm and for this run is was time to explore a new area... which meant going off-road. I ran to the biggest gorge under Keiskie Mountain and then headed up to the first steep contour. I made a decision to stay in the middle of the cliff as far as I could. I discovered the cave of a predator (probably a Caracal) and sat in silence absorbing the epic views a number of times. I came back via the road at Witvoet in very hot weather.
