KZN Trail Running is an event organising company based in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, delivering world-class trail running experiences across our beautiful province. Our events range from accessible 5 km routes to demanding mountainous ultra-distance challenges, with something on offer for beginners through to seasoned trail and mountain runners.

All our regular runs can be booked through this website, while our premier events each have their own dedicated race pages. We host four iconic single-day Mountain Challenges every year: the Lesotho Ultra, Ingeli Trail, Mnweni Marathon, and the Drakensberg Northern Trail.

We’ve also just launched our newest ultra-distance event — the Umndoni 100-Miler, hosted at Umdoni Park on the KZN South Coast. This loop-based 100-mile race (with a 50-mile option) brings together coastal forest singletrack, open fairways, and ocean air for a truly unique South Coast ultra experience.

KZN Trail Running offers unforgettable outdoor experiences to anyone keen and willing to explore the trails. We’re passionate about what we do and uncompromising when it comes to creating exceptional trail experiences in a safe and well-supported environment.
