Every time I visit Grootvadersbosch Conservancy near Heidelberg, I again realise that this is – without a shadow of a doubt – one of the most beautiful places in the world in which to run. Untouched indigenous forest, high fynbos plateaus, a dusting of snow on the peaks and black eagles patrolling the endless blue bowl of the sky above … if you’ve not visited the conservancy or Honeywood Farm, add it to your Bucket List now. The event made up part of the brilliant Quantum Country Classic Runs around the rural Western and Northern Cape.
