RUN THE VINES 2025 SERIES PRESENTED BY FIRST ASCENT

Join us on the 1st of November 2025 for the 11th event of the Run The Vines 2025 Series.

Jason’s Hill got its name from an old shepherd of the name Jason, who used to herd his sheep on the farm. The family have been farming with grapes for six generations, but it is only with the latest generation that the farm got its own winery. Jason’s Hill has been producing award winning wines ever since its establishment in 2002. It strives to give people an enjoyable time when visiting the gorgeous area and to have them taste lovely wines and food.

The 20km route will take you through the mountain, experiencing almost 3km of single track with two waterfalls and a running stream for drinking water. The 20km route will be a challenging route that should be done with extreme caution at some areas. The other parts of the 5km, 10km and 20km route will meander through the vineyards of Jason's Hill and the neighboring farms true to the Run The Vines tradition.

With a lovely kids playing area, good food, great wine and music you have to be part of this special event in the Slanghoek Valley!!

Info:

The aim of the 3km is to introduce kids to trail running and a healthy lifestyle, while spending great time with family and friends. This distance is for parents with small kids and not for individual adults. Adults must do the 5km.

Because we are running on working farms the promoted distances might not be exact. It might be a little longer or shorter. I will do my best to have it as close to the promoted distance as possible.   

Route profiles will be posted closer to the event as all the runs are on working farms and things can change quickly. Join our Facebook Group at www.facebook.com/groups/1532193470394888 for updated info.
