Estimations of how I think the route will be. I made it on maps based on these given facts only: - This 42 Km run involves ascending from 1200 m asl to 3000 m on the berg summit in Lesotho - It is a circular route which starts and ends at the Mnweni cultural centre (roughly at the confluence of the Mnweni and Ntonyelane rivers)in the northern Kwa Zulu Natal Drakensberg - The route follows the Mnweni Valley, ascends the Mnweni pass, crosses the source of the Orange on the plateau and returns down Rockeries pass and the Ntonyelane Valley
