About Bisley Nature Reserve TR

Discover the untamed beauty of trail running at the Bisley Trail Run. Nestled just outside Pietermaritzburg, the Bisley Nature Reserve is a hidden gem where giraffe, wildebeest and zebra roam freely, while an impressive variety of birdlife—including the Southern Tchagra, Dwarf Bittern, Corncrake and Booted Eagle—makes every run a true nature experience.

The route meanders through rolling grasslands and rugged thornveld, revealing sweeping views and an authentic sense of wilderness. Whether you’re chasing a personal best on the fast, runnable trails or taking your time to soak up the scenery, the Bisley Trail Run offers the perfect blend of challenge, adventure and unforgettable wildlife encounters.
