YOUR KAROO JOURNEY
Runners can choose to stay in our luxury glamping tents right at the heart of the event village, enjoying the full race atmosphere, festivities and campfire experience. For those who prefer a more traditional stay, we also offer limited Guest House accommodation options nearby.
Participants can look forward to waking up in the Karoo surrounded by beautiful mountains and fresh air. Clean ablution facilities with piping hot showers available on-site.
Two nights’ accommodation, Friday and Saturday night, are included in the entry fee, and each tent accommodates two people.

For those who prefer a little more comfort than Glamping, we also offer a selection of beautifully appointed Guest Houses located within walking distance of the event venue and festivities.
