Queensland > Townsville > Castle Hill Trail RunThe Castle Hill Trail Run had a little make over. The Event HQ has changed to the Belgian Gardens State School and all courses have changed. We have taken out some of the crazy rock scrambles and added in some of the new trails on the hill. The middle and long distance courses are slightly longer now and the short course remains short and sweet.
This event, being early in the the year, is designed to get people into trail running and utilise Townsville’s biggest icon. Castle Hill, just meters short of a mountain, is the city’s most popular walking and running destination. The trails are nothing short of a trail runners dream, flowy single track, challenging climbs, rewarding descents and spectacular views over the city as well as Magnetic Island and beyond. Don’t be fooled by the shorter distances in kilometres as in trail running you also have to take into account the elevation and technicality of the terrain. There is stairs and rock scrambles to be conquered, but the finish line will leave you with a sense of achievement and a want for more.
The event offers a 3km course for beginners and kids, a 7km intermediate course and a tough 10km for the more experienced runners. This event offers a great trail running experience right on your front door step.
