The Lynchford Express Run follows a heritage format: participants board the West Coast Wilderness Railway heritage steam train and then run back along the route, with the option to race the train or use the run as a warm up. The programme features both longer mountain skyruns and shorter trail runs and hikes.
The festival is presented by ARC'TERYX and supported by partners including the Tasmanian Government. The organisers acknowledge the Palawa people of Lutruwita as the traditional owners of the land where the events take place. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
