About the race
Hallows Eve is a trail race event in North Vancouver on October 24, 2026, offering the following distances:
- 10 KM
- Half Marathon
- Full Marathon
All races start and finish at Inter River Park near the entrance to the Lower Seymour Conservation Reserve. Courses use a mix of groomed and technical singletrack, gravel service roads, boardwalks through marsh, many stair sections, and several bridge crossings. Notable trail names and features mentioned on course maps include Sea-to-Sky, Baden-Powell, Twin Falls, Pipeline Bridge, and the Lynn Headwaters area.
A detour affects the Marathon and Half Marathon routes because a section of the Baden-Powell stairs is closed for construction; the detour runs through nearby streets and subdivision trails and applies in both directions. Courses are waymarked with flagging, signs, and marshals at key intersections.
Aid station access varies by distance: the Marathon passes aid stations five times, the Half Marathon three times, and the 10K once. Stations provide water, electrolyte drink, gels, chews, cookies and other treats, plus first aid and hygiene supplies. The event is cup-less so runners must carry or bring a personal drinking container. There is no mandatory gear list, but participants are advised to carry hydration, fuel, and extra clothing; poles are allowed but not recommended at the start.
Awards are given to the top three by gender in each event and every finisher receives a medal. An orientation run is scheduled before race day and package pickup is available the day before at the Running Room in North Vancouver. Parking is available at Inter River Park and at Capilano University, and carpooling is recommended. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
