Nestled
between the rugged Cederberg Mountains and the popular Clanwilliam
Dam, Clanwilliam with its expansive Rooibos plantations and fragrant
citrus orchards, is the perfect weekend getaway for families and
friends whilst embracing the festive, energetic vibe of one of the
most popular fitness events on the sporting calendar.
A
percentage of the proceeds raised from entry fees will be donated to
CANSA’s West Coast region. Rooibos’s anti-oxidant properties are
known to fight cancer effectively and form part of a healthy
lifestyle.
