Read The Review

Throughout South Africa, many beloved animals are threatened by human activities, none more widely discussed than the rhino. Conserving these endangered species is more than just a call; it’s a lifestyle, one that the Zululand Conservation Trust has embraced. Established in 2011, they strive to sustain the land and conserve endangered species while uplifting global communities through partnerships, projects and programmes. Over the past decade, they have worked to support the rhino population through various conservation efforts, volunteer work, and social gatherings like their much-anticipated Rhino Run and Rhino Ride this July and August, the cheapest, most fun safari weekend for all to enjoy on foot/bike.





Rhino Run
Since 2023, runners and conservation enthusiasts have flocked to the Zululand Conservation Trust’s annual Rhino Run. This unique sports and conservation event takes place over two days, offering all participants the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience the thrill of trail running through the breathtaking landscapes of the Manyoni Game Reserve. This affiliate of the Trust provides runners with a truly stunning backdrop for this event, with picturesque landscapes abundant with wildlife, including South Africa’s famous Big Five. Tracking through grasslands to riverbeds, runners of all skill levels are welcome on the various allocated routes.

This event is more than a run; it’s about creating lasting memories with the friends participants meet along the way. From the moment runners lace up their shoes until they cross the finish line, participants will find themselves part of a community that share a passion for wildlife and conservation.

The event is available in both full-length and half-length formats. The total length of the full event is 36km, while those participating in the half-length will span 17 km. DAY 1: Full route – 21 km trail run OR Half route – 10 km trail run DAY 2: Full route – 15 km trail run or Half route – 7 km trail run Every participant will directly aid the Zululand Conservation Trust with anti-poaching efforts, community education and habitat preservation groups.

Rhino Ride
Alongside the Rhino Run, the Zululand Conservation Trust invites all mountain biking enthusiasts to join them in their annual Rhino Ride. For over a decade, this incredible event has become immensely popular for those seeking a unique opportunity and wanting to aid in rhino conservation efforts. Also set in the Big Five area of the Manyoni Private Game Reserve, this unique event effortlessly combines adventure and conservation, bringing together outdoor enthusiasts and wildlife supporters from ages twelve and up.

This three-day event offers cyclists scenic routes for all skill levels through the reserve. The event can be cycled either the full route or the half route, except on Sunday, when only the full route is available. DAY 1: 40km full route or 19km half route DAY 2: 30km route (no half route although the route is on gentle terrain)
