Marked route vs GPS navigated route?
Klipspringer Challenge 2027
Both Lite & Challenge routes are fully marked.
BUT the number of races that require GPS navigation is increasing.
Which is better? It's an old question with no definitive answer. BUT it's important to be aware that you do NOT need a dedicated watch or device to follow a set GPS track, you can comfortably navigate using a smart phone. CAUTION: the one thing you need to take into account if navigating using a smart phone is battery life, and it is strongly recommended to carry a power bank to recharge.
Follow the markers in Augrabies Falls National Park on 24 & 25 April 2027 🎀

IYKYK!
Only trail runners will know!
That feeling, sitting in the dirt, aching feet, in the middle of spectacular nowhere, enjoying a cold beer, and knowing you're going to do it all again tomorrow.
