BMF UTA & Hounslow Training Runs : Kings Tableland
This guided training run uses sections of the Ultra Trail Australia (UTA) courses around Kings Tableland and Wentworth Falls. The route follows the QV Loop and includes Kedumba, Fern Bower, Leura Creek, Federal Pass, Leura Stairs, Leura Cascades, Wentworth Falls and parts of the UTA22/UTA50/UTA100 lines, with a minimum distance of 20 km and options for extra kilometres.
The event is delivered by trainers from Blue Mountains Fitness, who hold a National Parks and Wildlife Service ECO PASS licence and run training in the area. Pace groups are organised to cover different speeds and needs, with three named groups offering options to change groups during the run. Guides remain with participants and provide advice on race preparation, gear, nutrition, pacing and course information.
Participants are asked to bring UTA50/100 mandatory race gear, carry a minimum of two litres of water and sufficient fuel for 5–7 hours on foot; there will be some water drops on course. Minimum age is 16. There is an approximate bail-out point at Gordon Falls near 20 km and transport arrangements for participants who finish early.
Fees: Full course A$95, 20 km option A$85. An information sheet with maps and meeting points will be provided before the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
