Savanna Origin of Trails Trail Run and MTB events to be hosted on separate dates!
The organisers of the iconic Stellenbosch based Savanna Origin of Trails MTB and Trail Run Experience have announced that the events will boast separate dates in 2021 with the Trail Run Experience moving to 26 – 27 June, while the MTB Experience remains on 27 – 28 November.
“The COVID-19 restrictions limit the number of entries permitted at events,” says Michael Meyer, Managing Director of Stillwater Sports and Founder of the events. “Attempting to host both a Trail Run and MTB event on one day would place further restrictions on the number of entries permitted per event. The split will enable us to welcome more trail runners and more mountain bikers to the respective events. The split will also enable us to focus our full attention on the trail running experience in June and the mountain biking experience in November.”
