Christmas Trail @ Barn Owl
17 December 2022
Course Details
Located at the well known Ground Cover Leather factory & shop in Curry’s Post, the Barn Owl has become legendary in its own right.
Designed by owner, Ryan Solomon, the café has won awards and although we don’t profess to be coffee snobs, we can see why!!
The alchemy of sublime coffee, locally sourced and delicious food, gorgeous setting and inspiring design really make this café something special!
But that’s not all…
It became a refuge for KZNTR post-lockdown where we first started facilitating trails and the 5km, 10km and 15km routes were known to be beautiful but with a bit of a bite…just how we like it!!
So come celebrate the end of another crazy year. Run some epic trails, eat some delicious food and lets be merry!
