The event includes national championship races as part of the first combined Australian Mountain and Trail Running Championships (AMTRC2027) and features a range of distances and race formats from short foothill runs to long-distance ultras. The 2027 programme introduces a new long-course event, the 80km Ultra, designated as the Australian Long Trail Championship event, which includes approximately 4,785m of ascent and descent.

Training runs and guided cultural mountain walks are offered in the lead-up and during the festival, alongside a Runhub with expo and community activities. Registrations include race entry, course marking, aid stations on selected events, first aid and event medical support, photos, timing and live results, and other race-day services. The organisers acknowledge the Palawa people as the traditional owners of the land and include cultural activities as part of the festival.
