Challenge yourself on the breathtaking trails of the Blue Mountains at the Wentworth Falls Trail Run on February 8, 2026, offering an 11km and 16km course starting at 7:30 AM from the majestic Fairmont Resort in Leura. This stunning short-course race winds through Blue Mountains National Park on single-track trails and stairs, delivering spectacular views of Wentworth Falls and Mt. Solitary, with elevation gains of +545m (11km) and +645m (16km). Organized by the not-for-profit Running Wild Trail Association, this low-cost, wilderness-focused event requires all participants to carry at least 500ml of water from the start and adhere to a 2-hour cut-off at Valley of the Waters Track.
With no on-the-day entries and a strict competitor limit, be sure to secure your spot early for $65 per distance, whether you're chasing Elijah Gosby's 59:39 11km record or simply immersing yourself in World Heritage-listed beauty. Aid stations, detailed GPX files, and a passionate trail community await at one of NSW’s most visually rewarding and physically demanding trail runs.
