This is a collective effort that involves working with our partners SANParks, Table Mountain National Park, the City of Cape Town, Friends of Table Mountain, Sugarbird Project, Sustainable Ceder as well as the ITRA Green Programme... as well as the runners and supporters, sponsors and volunteers.

DEVELOPMENT RUNNERS
RMB Ultra-trail Cape Town® will contribute financially to developing trail running for disadvantaged communities and fostering the next group of elite runners. We have created the platform to expose talent from South Africa to the best trail runners and events in the world. We will offer up to 30 entries per year and will manage the process of booking transport and accommodation for the runners.
ENVIRONMENTAL PARTNERS
FRIENDS OF TABLE MOUNTAIN
FOTM is a public, mountain users’ forum with the following purpose:
To ensure the appropriate management of Table Mountain National Park by the assigned management authority in the best interests of ecology, recreational use and eco-tourism in keeping with the Park's founding principles of an urban national park.
SUSTAINABLE CEDER
Sustainable Ceder is committed to a range of cedar-conservation focused projects that will assist with the achievement of our objectives and overall goal of ensuring a self-sustainable Clanwilliam cedar population in the Cederberg.
Our main project consists of well-defined a-projects that occur during certain periods throughout the year. These micro-projects include nursery propagation; manufacturing of planting equipment; sapling planting; monitoring, and data capturing and analysis; environmental education and awareness initiatives; and guided cedar experiences.
ITRA'S GREEN PROGRAMME
ITRA’s program seeks to encourage the trail running community to join forces, working together to reduce the environmental impact of our sport. The responsibility rests with each of us. By being eco-responsible, we hope that trail running can make a positive contribution to environmental conservation and educate the public on the need to be mindful of the impact of our activities on the planet.
