Cobra Strike 33 km
On the other side of the mountain, your hair begins to rise.
33 km
Upward through the raw slopes of Spitzkop, Dragon's Passage bares its teeth. Cobra Alley strikes narrow and sharp, ancient fynbos clawing at your ankles, the trail twisting like a living thing.
Silvermine opens before you, cliffs and sky stretching to the horizon. Elephant's Eye comes next, a thread of rocky switchbacks through the wilderness, before the trail rolls along the contour toward Vlakkenberg, where the 42 and 21 join you for The Fang.
Over the top, gravity pulls you down to Price Drive and into the Constantia wine valley. Past Groot Constantia, Klein Constantia and Buitenverwachting, vineyards replace rock on the way to The Den at Constantia Uitsig.
