Join us for an enchanting Dolphin and Whale Run starting at the serene Klein Brak Beach. From the parking lot, we'll embark on a delightful journey through the charming Klein Brak suburbs, covering approximately 1.5 km. After this warm-up, we transition onto a scenic 400-meter trail leading us to Kusweg Road.

Here, we'll enjoy an easy road run, where the breathtaking views of the ocean will captivate your senses. Keep your eyes peeled for a school of dolphins that often make a delightful appearance, entertaining us with their playful antics.

During the months of September and October, whale season graces us with its presence. It's an awe-inspiring experience to witness these majestic creatures in such a peaceful and natural setting.

At the 5 km mark, we have two options for our return journey. We can either retrace our steps along the tar road, soaking in the spectacular coastal views from a different perspective, or, if the tide permits, we can run back along the beach, feeling the sand beneath our feet and the ocean breeze in our hair.

No matter which path we choose, this run promises a perfect blend of tranquility, natural beauty, and exhilarating exercise.

  • Scenic Suburbs:Enjoy a picturesque run through the Klein Brak suburbs.
  • Ocean Views:Revel in breathtaking ocean vistas along Kusweg Road.
  • Dolphin Sightings:Be entertained by playful dolphins along the way.
  • Whale Watching:Experience the wonder of whale season in September and October.
  • Flexible Return Route:Choose between a scenic road run or a refreshing beach run back to the starting point.
