TWO OCEANS MARATHON

During the Easter weekend, it is the most important sporting event in Cape Town, both for the locals and the marathon runners, as well as for the economy of the city and even the Cape Town region. And for good reason, it brings together more than 15,000 people each year and is broadcast live on local television. There are two events on the programme: the ultra-marathon, 56 km, and the half-marathon, 21 km. The race route via Chapman's Peak, Hout Bay and Constantia Nek is sublime.
