About the Event

Experience the thrill of the Albion Ascent Trail Race on September 26, 2027, where nature and urban trails converge. This chip-timed race offers routes through Hamilton's hidden gems, including King’s Forest with its rolling hills and Red Hill Creek with stunning fall colors.
The 5K route is ideal for beginners, featuring paved paths and gentle dirt trail sections that wind through the forest, complete with a river crossing and scenic hill climbs. The 10K ups the ante by introducing rugged singletrack on the Bruce Trail, passing two breathtaking waterfalls—Felker’s Falls and Devil's Punch Bowl.
For seasoned runners craving technical terrain, the 21K route is an absolute must. It begins in King’s Forest before tackling the challenging Albion climb and venturing onto the Bruce Trail for a majority of its length. This out-and-back course rewards you with two passes through Felker’s Falls and Devil's Punch Bowl, offering jaw-dropping views at every turn.
Aid stations are strategically placed along each route to provide hydration and energy bars, ensuring runners stay fueled throughout their journey. Participants will also receive an exclusive Albion Ascent Canadian-made toque upon registration.
Join the race that combines breathtaking scenery with exhilarating challenges for a truly unforgettable experience in Hamilton's natural beauty.
