About the race
Bloemendal Orienteering is an orienteering event held at Bloemendal Trail Park in Cape Town, Western Cape. The event offers three courses with mapped distances and climb figures on a 1:5000 map drawn in 2026.
Course options:
- Long: 6.5 km, 60 m climb
- Middle: 4.5 km, 50 m climb
- Short: 3.2 km, 20 m climb
All courses require a 1.4 km uphill walk from the assembly area to the start. The venue includes a restaurant and on-site hospitality run by the landholders. Participants are asked to take care around mountain bike tracks because the farm is popular with mountain bikers.
Entry is by pre-entry only; pre-entries close on Thursday 20 August 2026 at midnight. Pricing per person varies by membership and age category and includes the Bloemendal venue access fee. Team entries are supported for some classes with team sizes of two to three participants. The event is organized by the local orienteering club and takes place at Bloemendal Trail Park, Bloemendal Road, Tygerberg Valley Road, Oude Westhof, Cape Town.
