King of the Hill - Pyalong, VIC

King of the Hill is a last-person-standing hill repeat event held in Pyalong, Victoria on 31 October 2026. Up to 300 participants run a marked circuit that includes two major climbs and one steep descent over predominantly grassy, uneven terrain with small rock clusters.

Cash awards and timed prizes are offered, including a main cash prize for the last person standing, separate awards for the last male and last female standing, and fastest-lap prizes. The event provides live results tracking on-site and a global livestream; a previous livestream ran for 90 consecutive hours and attracted more than 100,000 viewers.

Race entry includes a designated personal rest area (reported as 3 m x 3 m), up to three support people in that area at a time, GPS tracking, a race pack, finisher medals with optional engraving, professional event photography, access to on-site physio and an ice bath recovery zone, and an on-site tattoo artist.
