Not everyone feels ready to take on the full Hout Bay Trail Challenge alone… and that’s exactly why HBTC has a team option. ⛰️
Grab two mates, split the route between the three of you and take on the mountain together — one leg at a time. Whether you’re the climber, the speedster or just there for the gees and the finish line photos, there’s a place for everyone on a team.
And of course, there’s the important job of coming up with a legendary team name. 😄
Entries are filling fast for Saturday, 1 August 2026.
