The Whole Enchilada

The Whole Enchilada

The Whole Enchilada is a trail running race held at the Trail Hub in Uxbridge, Ontario. The Trail Hub is a family-owned 140-acre property with access to a trail network. Durham Region, known as the trail network capital of Canada, boasts over 240 km of hiking and biking trails.

The event offers several distances:

The courses go through varied landscapes including Durham Forest, Walker Woods, and Glen Major, with significant elevation gains on the longer routes.

Additionally, 50% of the Hike Enchilada registration fees are donated to local environmental initiatives through the Green Durham Association.
