Karoo Poison

Laerskool Koo bied aan / Koo Primary School Presents

Karoo Poison MTB Gravel Race and Trail Run
Karoo Poison Bergfietsgruiswedren en Bergroetehardloop

Vir die gemeenskap is die voortbestaan van Laerskool Koo ‘n hoë prioriteit en geniet die skool ongelooflike ondersteuning van die dorp se inwoners.

Met slegs 39 leerders maak die skool baie staat op fondsinsamelings vir die voortbestaan van die skool, daarom het ons besluit om ‘n jaarlikse bergfietswedren aan te bied. Hierdie is geleë in die hartjie van die Klein Karoo, vandaar die naam “Karoo Poison”.

​Die wedren vind jaarliks in die Nougaspoort area plaas en begin en eindig by Leeuwenboschfontein gasteplaas.

For the community, the survival of Koo Primary School is a high priority and the school enjoys incredible support from the town’s residents.

With only 39 learners, the school relies heavily on fundraising for the school’s continued existence, which is why we decided to host an annual mountain bike race. This is located in the heart of the Klein Karoo, hence the name “Karoo Poison”.

The race takes place annually in the Nougaspoort area and starts and ends at Leeuwenboschfontein guest farm.


Bergfietse, gruisfietse en e-fietse is welkom om deel te neem. Verskeie roetes word aangebied: ‘n 125km Ultra-Maraton, ‘n 99km Maraton, ‘n 55km Halfmaraton, sowel as ‘n 28km Familierit. Vir die ywerige hardlopers is daar ‘n 16km Bergroetehardloop en vir die geesdriftige ondersteuners, ‘n prettige 7km Hardloop/Staproete. Die hele gesin kan ook deelneem aan die 2km Pret Kleurdraf/Stap-roete, dit is geskik vir alle ouderdomme.

Vir meer inligting, besoek asb. die registrasieblad.
