BURRALOW BUSH RUN | HAWKESBURY NSW
The Burralow Bush Run is a collaboration with the Hawkesbury Trail Runners. It is the only trail running event in the Hawkesbury, located in the foothills of the mountains, north west of Sydney. Starting and finishing at the event hub at Bilpin Fruit Bowl, the Burralow Bush Run showcases the beautiful trails in and around Kurrajong Heights, Bilpin and Bowen Mountain and offers two distances (plus a 1.5km kids event!). All finishers receive a participant medal.

As an homage to the original trail running event in the Hawkesbury (the Willy to Billy then the Bilpin Bush Run), the Burralow Bush Run is a non-profit event, with all funds raised going to the 3 local RFS brigades that actively support the success of the event. In 2024, due to the participation of you fantastic runners, we were incredibly proud to donate $10,255 to the Bilpin, Kurrajong Heights and Grose Vale brigades.
