About The Event
There are four B-grade river races in the runup to the Berg River Marathon (Berg). The races cover the first two days of the Berg, which are the most challenging of the total distance of 240km. Some of those events have their own interesting history going back as far as the early 70s. The river races are very popular amongst paddlers who are looking for adventure and especially for the ones preparing for Berg, #TheUltimateCanoeRace
*Berg entries have to be members of a canoe club, have a valid CSA license and must be AR rated.
