THE 2021 EXPERIENCE

For the fourth consecutive year, runners of all levels are invited to join a multi-stage, all-women run across the untouched wilderness areas of Singita Grumeti’s private concession in the western corridor of the Serengeti, home to an abundance of wildlife and a unique ecosystem.

This exclusive, purpose-driven event forms part of Singita and the Grumeti Fund’s Safaris with a Purpose and will raise funds for empowerment programs for girls, including the provision of sanitary pads for one year and education scholarships.

The run involves a flexible, multi-stage distance of 21km per day. Whether on foot or supporting the runners in the shadow vehicle, participants will also be able to engage with local girls and learn more about the Grumeti Fund’s work in the region. Every evening, guests are able to enjoy guided evening game drives that provide a front-row seat to this exclusive 350,000-acre protected reserve. On completion of the run, participants will have the option to learn more about the Grumeti Fund’s community and conservation programs, including a career fair for local high school girls, an option to visit the Anti-Poaching Canine Unit and take a tour of the new centre for Research and Innovation for the Serengeti Ecosystem (RISE).

DISCOVER THE REIMAGINED SINGITA SABORA TENTED CAMP

Participants will have the privilege to return to the utmost comfort and luxury after each day’s run, while experiencing the quintessential elements of an idyllic tented safari under canvas. Each of the nine tented suites at the recently reimagined Singita Sabora Tented Camp features elements like a private meditation deck, with views of the surrounding grasslands, a beautifully curated in-room pantry and dining space, and an outdoor sala with daybeds and scatter cushions – perfect for reading or marvelling at the plains game passing by.

Bringing the tents even closer to the ground, Sabora now allows guests to be much more connected with their natural surrounds, continuously immersing them in the sights and sounds of the Serengeti.

With its intuitive simplicity and craftsmanship, décor that echoes the earthy colour palette of the bush, modern interpretations of campaign furniture evoking the timeless spirit of East African adventures, and the romance of a tented safari on the plains, it’s the perfect setting for this experience of a lifetime.
