Trail Run Wine Weekend: The Ultimate Getaway at Mount Avoca
Hosted at the stunning Mount Avoca Winery, the Trail Run Wine Weekend is designed to be the perfect getaway for families, mates and trail lovers. Pitch your tent right on the winery grounds for Friday and Saturday night, wake up amongst the vines, and step straight onto the start line.
The Trails: From Fast Vines to Rugged Ridges
Whether you're stepping up for a marathon-distance epic or bringing the kids along for the 2.5km Family Verjuice Dash, there's a distance for everyone. The courses wind through the beautiful vine-filled corridors of Mount Avoca and the Blue Pyrenees before climbing into the rugged ridgelines and gravel tracks of the State Forest.
Sunday: Relays & Recovery
Keep the festival vibes rolling into Sunday! Team up with your mates for the 21km Cab Sav Laps Relay, tackle all three laps solo for a 21km challenge, or shake out the legs with a quick and tasty 5km dash before packing up camp.

Saturday Night Wine Mile Time Trial (WMTT)
Brace yourself for a trail running revolution! Be part of history with the first-ever Wine Mile Time Trial, held under lights in a unique time trial format. It's an exciting new take on trail running that's just as entertaining for the roaring spectators as it is for the runners.
Course Highlights
The Epic Vibe: The action starts and finishes beneath the iconic Big Black Box tree. Picture a blazing fire pit, live acoustic music, great food, and the Ute Bar pouring local wines while the crowd cheers every runner home.
The Sprint: Cover exactly one mile (1.6km) in an all-out, red-line effort. You'll tackle flowing singletrack, fast fire roads and a lung-busting final loop around the dam, powered entirely by the atmosphere from the crowd.
The Ultimate Challenge: It's a pure battle against the clock. Watch the leaderboard constantly change as each runner crosses the finish line. The winner won't be known until the final competitor storms home.
Push yourself to the absolute limit and leave it all on the trail. Will you be fast enough to claim ultimate glory and earn a place in the Hot Seat?
