True Grit Trails is a KZN-based trail running company that creates unforgettable running adventures for all fitness levels. Each event is designed to challenge, inspire, and connect runners — from first-timers to seasoned athletes.

We host one trail running event each month, at different breathtaking venues across KwaZulu-Natal. Every race offers a unique terrain and atmosphere — no two events are the same.

Everyone is welcome! Whether you’re new to trail running or chasing your next ultra, there’s a distance and challenge that fits your level of grit.

All events are timed with our own wrist bands that have timing chips in them - different colours for different distance categories.

We understand that plans can change. If you’re unable to attend an event, you may transfer your entry to another participant or request to defer your entry to a future True Grit Trails event, provided you notify us at least 7 days before race day. Entries may be refunded on an individual basis , up to 7 days before the event the options are: 1. postponement to a future event of the same value 2. Cash refund less the yoco and bank charges. Cancellations made less than 7 days before the event are non-refundable, as event logistics and costs are already committed. If an event is cancelled or postponed due to weather or circumstances beyond our control, all entries will be automatically transferred to the rescheduled date or a future event.
