Lace up those takkies, and come and join us for a fantastic morning under the winter skies.
“The greatest threat to our planet is the belief that someone else will save it” Saving these ridges is a big task, but with your support every step of the way, we are able to achieve it. Join us for this year’s Black Eagle Mountain Run and celebrate Joburg’s wild spaces. The race is a fundraising initiative where all proceeds go towards conserving this precious ridge habitat and all the amazing biodiversity within it.
