Held on the iconic and inspiring Gaanha-bula (Mount Canobolas), just outside Orange NSW, this event will challenge runners of all levels: 11K, 22K and 32K trail runs, and ultra-marathons of 50K, 50M, 104K, and 100 Miler along with kids events. Runners will experience a dramatic course through the heart of the Canobolas State Forest, taking in fire trails, woodlands and open pasture, climbing to nearly 1,400 metres with breathtaking views over the NSW Central West.

Set yourself a new challenge for 2026 and experience all the Orange district has to offer this September!
