Event Details
Course Description
The Sri Chinmoy Canberra Trail 100 starts and finishes at Rond Terrace, at the foot of Anzac Parade on Lake Burley Griffin, in Canberra's Parliamentary Triangle. The 100km loop threads through the hills, nature reserves and open spaces of central, south and north Canberra, passing Parliament House, Red Hill, Isaacs Ridge, Farrer Ridge, Mt Taylor, Mt Arawang and Cooleman Ridge before crossing Stromlo Forest Park and the National Arboretum's Cork Oaks plantation, then Black Mountain Reserve, Mt Majura and Mt Ainslie. The course mixes bush single-track, fire trails and urban paths, with sustained climbing across its four legs and no single race-level elevation figure published. It is well-marked, split into four relay legs for teams, with transition points doubling as aid stations for solo runners.
