COMPULSORY GEAR

Due to the variable and potentially dangerous weather experienced in the Drakensberg, the compulsory kit list is taken very seriously by the organisers. Compulsory kit will be checked and photographed at registration (not at the race start) as well as at the finish. A missing item will result in a time penalty and more than one missing item will result in disqualification. Please make sure you thoroughly check the compulsory kit lists.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Please read through the Terms and Conditions thoroughly.
