Run The Vines 2026 #5 - Diemersfontein Wine and Country Estate
This event is the fifth race in the Run The Vines 2026 series presented by First Ascent. The event was postponed to 18 July 2026 from the original 16 May 2026 date because of road and structural damage to the farm after heavy rain. The venue is Diemersfontein Wine and Country Estate in Wellington, Western Cape, an estate run by the Sonnenberg family for three generations that produces wines and offers countryside hospitality linked to local upliftment and empowerment projects.
Offered distances include:
- 17 km
- 10 km
- 5 km
- 3 km adult accompanying child (for parents with small children)
- Kids 3 km U/8 (free, must be accompanied by an adult)
Entries for the main distances include a timing tag and timing is provided by BoutTime. A permanent timing tag is available for purchase for other events. Because runs take place on working farms, actual distances may be slightly longer or shorter than promoted. Waterpoints will be available but participants are advised to be self-sufficient for hydration. There will be farm vendors after the run. Medals are provided to all finishers. A late entry fee applies and unpaid entries are removed after three days. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
