Race Information

A one weekend celebration of trail running, community, and adventure. After years of spanning three days, every race and every runner is being brought together for a single, unforgettable weekend.

This shift means more energy, more atmosphere, and more connection, from the youngest goats in Billy the Kid to the endurance challenge of the Mt Coot-Tha Marathon. With Golden Hoof, and the ever popular Surefoot completing the line-up, the entire herd will share the same trails, the same finish line, and the same festival spirit.

The Mt Coot-Tha Trail Festival will be a true gathering of trail runners: inclusive, adventurous, and inspiring.

Discover the trails. Rediscover yourself.
