Kowen Winter Trails

Kowen Winter Trails offers three trail running distances that start and finish at Wamboin Community Hall and run into Kowen Forest and native bush. The event takes place on Sunday, 20 June 2027, at 112 Bingley Way, Wamboin, NSW.

Runners follow 1.3 km of sealed bitumen along Bingley Way before entering hilly, groomed dirt forestry trails with some short sections of single track. The courses include significant elevation gain: the marathon ascends Mt Amungula and the half marathon takes runners up Mt Doom.

Distances

• 42.2 km marathon with about 1400 metres elevation gain.
• 21.1 km half marathon with about 600 metres elevation gain.
• 12 km trail run with about 400 metres elevation gain.

The marathon is an official qualifier for Six Foot Track. All participants must carry mandatory safety gear and will undergo a gear check before they collect their race number: a water container, a mobile phone with the race director's number saved, and a space blanket. Entrants who do not have these items will not be permitted to start.

Cut off times are 7 hours for the marathon and 4.5 hours for both the half marathon and the 12 km. Partial refunds are available before entries close less an administration fee of $15. Entry transfers and distance changes are possible online while entries remain open and may incur a $10 administration fee. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
