Race Information

The fourth event in the 5 Peaks Trail Running Series in Ontario takes place at the newly created Area 8 Conservation Area.

From the late-1950s to the mid-1990s, the area provided limestone as one of the largest aggregate producers in Canada. Today, the former quarry has been transformed into a beautiful natural area, nestled into the escarpment, with trails that run along the outside.
