The Races: 
46k Double Loop Ultra

Looking to conquer your first Ultra? Look no further, this unique challenge sees runners complete the 23k loop then turn around and do it in the opposite direction. It’s amazing how different a loop can seem in reverse, especially on tired legs. Getting dizzy? This is the ultimate Roller Coaster!


23k Single Loop

This is a dynamic course which follows well made undulating trails through the ferny forests of the Dandenong National Park. Don’t be fooled by the beauty, there is some steep terrain to challenge the legs and the roller coaster peaks and valleys add up to a stout 1150m+ of vert!


12k Twilight Mad Mouse

This course is perfect for anyone from the ultimate Pro to the trail newbie! This course offers the full trail experience, from the breathtaking climb up Observatory Track to the equally breathtaking view at Bourke’s Lookout, to the thrilling downhill of Zig Zag Track to the friendly community coming together at the finish.


2k Kids Carousel

Roll Up, Roll Up! Trail legends of the future, we are calling YOU! Kickstart your kid’s trail running experience with the race on all the kids' lips. This friendly looped course around Kalorama Reserve is sure to get their hearts beating and faces smiling.
