The summit trail is approximately 2.5kms to the top, with 350m elevation gain.

After the run, we'll gather at the finish and make our way down to Letterbox Cafe in Penguin for a well-deserved post-summit coffee. Recharge, unwind, and share stories of triumph and camaraderie with your fellow trail enthusiasts.
