Once a year, the borders of the Crocodile River Reserve open to the public for a truly special event—Run the Rhenoster, a scenic trail run or walk through one of Gauteng’s last remaining Egoli Granite Grasslands, just 20 minutes from Fourways.This one-day event takes participants along carefully curated routes on the western side of the reserve, winding through single-track trails, quiet district roads, and along the peaceful Small Crocodile River.
Along the way, you’ll encounter some of the reserve’s most iconic natural and historic landmarks—from the geological wonder of the Black Reef Formation to the tranquil heights of Koppie Alleen, the sweeping views from Rhenosterkop, and the reflective beauty of the Rhenosterspruit Dam. You’ll also pass through Brooklands, an area rich in agricultural history, and wetlands teeming with biodiversity.
Each route—5km or 12km—features several interpretive stops where expert guides will share fascinating stories about the land, its ecology, and its deep heritage. This is more than a trail run—it’s an immersive journey through time, nature, and conservation.
