Plett's Harkerville parkrun is a timed 5km run or walk, every Saturday.  Harkerville parkrun is a great concept to get out there and get moving, making the town fitter, one Saturday at a time.  It is not a race.  It is a free, timed event.  Walkers welcome.  But NO DOGS ALLOWED!

Don’t forget to register at www.parkrun.co.za/harkerville - print and bring your BARCODE with you.  No barcode, no result.

Plett's Harkerville parkrun will start from just outside the Harkerville Saturday market. Turn off the N2 towards the market, and park on the left field, next to Sassenheim.

Visit the Harkerville parkrun Facebook page, and if you have any queries, send a message via Facebook Messenger, or send an email to harkervilleoffice@parkrun.com.

Envisioned 4 years ago, the Plett ARTS Festival was put into action by the Plett Tourism team.  Strategised as a cultural event during the winter holiday to dovetail with the adventure sports highlighted at our neighbour Knysna’s Oyster Festival, in line with the appeal of heritage and culture for tourists and, in time, to become a contender amongst the top arts festivals in the world.  Bearing in mind that reputation is grown out of years of consistent quality and steady sustained delivery.  The National Arts Festival in Makhanda is 47 years in the making, and the Knysna Oyster Festival, 35.
