Course and terrain

All races start from Cumberland River Holiday Park and use single trails through the nearby mountains. Longer distances visit up to six waterfalls. All distances include three river crossings within the first 2 km, with water depth varying from ankle to knee depending on recent rainfall. Course routes changed for 2025 for all distances except the 6 km. Downloadable course maps and GPX/CRS files are provided for each distance.

Entry fees vary by distance and registration period. Humanitix booking fees are added at checkout and on-site entries incur an additional admin fee. Trailsplus does not mail bibs; bib collection occurs on the morning of the race. The event is held on a Saturday rather than the usual Sunday scheduling of most Trailsplus events.
