Peninsula Ultra Fun Run

The PUFfeR is a no-frills ultra Trail Run which has been held annually in Cape Town, South Africa since 1995. There is no prize money and no major media coverage. Entries are limited to 125 participants who are expected to be independent, self-sufficient and environmentally aware.

The total distance is AbOUT 80 km, which is more or less the shortest possible route through the Table Mountain National Park with the best running tracks and views. The route runs from Cape Point to Red Hill Pass, through the Simon's Town Water Catchment Area to Black Hill, via Ou Kaapse Weg across Fish Hoek Valley to Silvermine Nature Reserve, through Tokai Forest Plantation and the Vlakkenberg footpath to Constantia Nek, over Table Mountain to the summit at Maclear's Beacon (1,086 metres above sea level), then down Platteklip Gorge to Kloofnek, via Signal Hill to the V&A Waterfront. Well-stocked seconding points are provided wherever it is practical.

The Tuffer PUFfeR is a 160 km event which starts from the V & A Waterfront. Runners make their way to Cape Point and back via the Puffer route.
