About this race
Darling Brew and Living Colour are teaming up for something exciting, and trust us, this event is all about fun and adventure.
We're thrilled to announce the third annual Vine to Hop Trail Run! This year, our talented trail creators have crafted some epic new routes that all start at Darling Brew. From there, you’ll venture off the beaten track and into the heart of Darling’s stunning winelands, with the 21km and 12km finishing at Living Colour, and the 5km route wrapping up back at Darling Brew. And of course, you’ll be working up a thirst for the good stuff at the finish line!
Take in the untouched beauty of our charming little town in the Swartland, and join us for a run through these hidden gems that are normally off-limits. Whether you’re sprinting or strolling, you’re free to go at your own pace and soak in the scenery. See you on the trail – and at the brewery!
