About the race
King of the Mountain is a trail run organised by the West Australian Marathon Club at Helena Valley Primary School on Sunday 27 June 2027. The event features a single loop course of 16.1 km that starts and finishes at the school and includes a creek crossing, steep ascents and descents, and a summit section at a granite outcrop called The Mountain.
The main loop runs anticlockwise on the north side of the valley and returns via a detour south of Helena Valley Road after recrossing the creek. The route is waymarked and has nine marshalled locations. Parts of the course follow sealed public road, sloping tracks, ridgeline single track and fire breaks; some sections are rough and rocky and require care on descents.
There is no drinking water on course so participants must carry their own hydration. A drink station and breakfast service, including hot soup, are available at the finish. Limited parking is expected near the school and carpooling is encouraged.
BIB collection differs for members and non members: members wear their club cloth bib and timing chip; non members receive a bib number by email prior to race day and collect their bib on the morning. Registrations are available up until 7:30 am on event day. Entry fees vary by membership and age, with listed prices for U18 and adult categories.
