Rejoov get away Clare Valley / Taylor's Wines

Rejoov Runners and Taylors Wines are excited to announce our next training camp in the vibrant Clare Valley of South Australia.

If you like your running, and you like your wine, if you like great food, great company and an extremely well organised weekend of not thinking about anything, then this is for you - and your family.

Scheduled for the October long weekend which takes place this year from Friday September 28th to Monday October 1st, this is a camp for everyone. We welcome kids of all ages and will develop specific activities for the little tackers throughout the weekend.

Just down the road from our accommodation at the Clare Country Club, we will visit Taylor’s wine estate where we will train on their perimeter circuit before returning for a VIP exclusive wine tasting in our own wine room and conducted by Mitchell Taylor. Yep, we have the man himself on home soil showing us how Taylor’s managed to snag their little award recently - WORLD’S BEST WINERY 2017.
