Set against the backdrop of Cape Town’s oldest wine farms, the Grape Run 2025 leads runners over 21.1 km or 14 km through the Constantia Valley on a mix of paved roads and firm farm paths. Starting and finishing at Constantia Village, the route winds through iconic estates like Groot Constantia, Klein Constantia, Buitenverwachting and Constantia Uitsig, passing dams, vineyards and rolling hills. Elevation gain sits around 445 m for the half marathon and 290 m for the 14 km, making it more demanding than a standard road race but not a full technical trail. Early-morning views, quiet farm roads and an environmentally conscious, largely plastic-free setup create a race that’s as much about scenery and atmosphere as speed.
