A space where luxury meets mountain calm… ✨
Our second sneak peek reveals the warm, earthy heart of Hogsback’s newest high-altitude hideaway.

From handcrafted wood finishes to sunlight pouring across spacious interiors, every detail is designed for slow mornings, cozy evenings, and effortless comfort.

This is more than a chalet — it’s a retreat shaped by nature, perched at the very top of Hogsback.
And we’re only just getting started… 🌄🌿

Introducing Hogsback’s newest hidden gem… ✨
Perched at the highest residential point in the village, our brand-new luxury chalet invites you to wake up above the trees, where sunrise pours into your room and the mountains meet the sky.

Think quiet mornings on your private deck, crisp forest air, and views that feel almost unreal.
A retreat crafted for slow living, deep breaths, and unforgettable escapes.

Stay tuned — something magical is about to open in the mountains of Hogsback. 🌲🏔️💛

Deep in the Amatola mountains, the trails are waiting.
The owls know, the waterfalls whisper, and the forest waits for the sound of feet once more.

Each year the forest opens its paths, alive with night runners chasing shadows, families laughing through the fun run, and Hobbiters testing themselves over 21km, 42km, or the full 90km (Nonstop or Journey). Some stitch the trails together and weave their own stage race, others throw everything at a single distance.

The Amatolas ask for grit and give back wonder. However you run, the forest will remember you.
It is a long weekend for the whole family to share, with firelight, forest paths, and stories carried home in tired legs and full hearts.

25 to 27 April 2026 - Hogsback, Eastern Cape
Entries open early October. 🌿 A whisper now, an adventure soon.
