Spreetshoogte, a Wild Run!

Get ready to push your limits amid nature’s raw beauty on 22 June, as the Gondwana Spreetshoogte Challenge invites adventurers and athletes alike to an exhilarating trail run.

The journey begins at Barkhan Dune Retreat, rising through the briar savanna to conquer the legendary Spreetshoogte Pass. The question is: Do you have what it takes to meet this challenge?

Adding a melodic note to the event, the ever-evolving Namibian music scene will see a thrilling new chapter with the genesis of The Undivided Band.

The Undivided Band represents the magic of teamwork, combining different musical styles to create an amazing sound. This collaboration proves that music unites, standing as testament to its role as an inclusive language and a universal bridge connecting hearts and souls through its rhythms.

Participants and supporters can also look forward to a delicious braai, offering a hearty meal to replenish and celebrate the end of this historic event.
