The Salomon-Harties Trail Partnership 2024 Revolutionizes Running Events

The Harties Trail Experience, a trail running event that has swiftly captured the hearts of the Gauteng and North West running communities, is set to scale new heights in 2024. This series, which began its journey in January 2023, has welcomed a new partnership with Salomon, a brand synonymous with outdoor sports and a pioneer in trail running in South Africa. The Salomon-Harties Trail Partnership 2024 marks a significant milestone in the evolution of trail running events in the region.

Salomon's journey began in 1947 in the French Alps, evolving from a small workshop producing ski edges to a global leader in outdoor sports equipment. With a presence in over 40 countries, Salomon has made its mark in various sports, including trail running, hiking, skiing, and snowboarding. The brand has been instrumental in growing trail running in South Africa over the last 15 years+.


The Salomon-Harties Trail Partnership 2024 not only brings Salomon's expertise to the fore but also promises to enhance the overall experience for participants. Runners can look forward to experiencing Salomon's retail stand, testing top-notch running shoes, and enjoying the new chill zone at the event. Additionally, Salomon will be spicing up the events with spot prizes, particularly in the 12km and 6km races.


The partnership is a testament to Salomon's commitment to trail running and its efforts to bring innovative experiences to runners and outdoor enthusiasts. The 2024 series, under the banner of the Salomon-Harties Trail Partnership 2024, includes the Pofadder Trail Race on 10th February, Harties River Trail on 16th March, Magalies Challenge on 4th May, and culminates with the Harties Loop on 3rd August.
