sweet singletrack

Beautiful bush, bit of vert, great company, very good times.

This course is all killer, no filler.

Set amidst the magnificent Mt Cole State Forest and Buangor State Park just a few hours west of Melbourne, Wild Mount is going to whisk you away on a cracking trail experience. And with three distances of 21, 11 or 5km there is something for every trailophile* to sign off the year in running style.

The singletrack is absolutely primo with ribbons of dirt and rock cutting through stunningly beautiful bushland, there is enough vert to get your heart going and your thighs singing, and the vibe of the event is top shelf. The profiles of the courses does hint at just a little bit of ascent, at 913m in the 21km loop and 573m for the 11km, but hey, who doesn’t love a mountain?

This one’s a stunner.

WHERE IS THE EVENT?

The event is held at Cave Hill Creek , the best school camp and wedding venue (and now trail run venue) in the State! Located at:

110 The Glut Road, Raglan.

You can see how to get to the site HERE.

Essentially, if coming from Melbourne way:

  • Fling on past Ballarat to the little town of Beaufort.

  • Take a right towards and through Raglan (a place more so than a town).

  • Look for the turn off veering left on The Glut Rd, towards Cave Hill Creek Camp.

  • Drive on past Cave Hill Creek Camp main entrance.

  • DO NOT ENTER THE MAIN GATE! There is a wedding on the main property and we do not want to disturb proceedings!

  • A few hundred metres past the main gate you will come to another paddock gate on your right. Turn in there, park and make your way to the event HQ, see map below.

IMPORTANT: please DO NOT enter or wander around the main Cave Hill Creek Property (red area). A wedding is being held, and the venue managers have very kindly allowed us our patch down the rear of the property, on the proviso that we and our participants do not enter the main property or disturb the peace of the wedding in process. Thanks in advance for your consideration and respect.
