Federation Ultra Trail 2018

The inaugural Federation Ultra Trail will be held on Sunday July 29th 2018. *NOTE: CHANGE OF DATE*

 

The run is a trail based event held predominantly on the Lavender/Federation Trail and will take in the new Callington Hill "Olearia Trail" with breathtaking views over the Bremmer Valley before descending upon the Frahn's Farm Conservation Project area. The halfway point and starting place for the 25km Event is at Monarto Sports Complex where runners will pass the Monarto Zoo where wild African animals can be glimpsed and heard. The run takes in the stunning new trails of the Kinchina Conservation Park and wonderous Rocky Gully before a final burst around the wetlands and alongside the River Murray to finish at the trail head in Murray Bridge.

 

"UNLOCK AND LOAD" Level Up format:

 

Runners who complete the beast that is the 50km Ultra trail, will hold the key to "UNLOCK" Level 2 on their return to subsequent Federation Ultra Trails.
