Melrose Running Festival

The Melrose Running Festival, organized by Adelaide Trail Runners, takes place in the scenic Mt Remarkable National Park near Melrose, South Australia, about three hours north of Adelaide. Established in 2017, the festival offers three trail running distances: 50km, 30km, and 15km, catering to various skill levels. The challenging course demands experience for the 50km ultra, with qualifying criteria in place to ensure runner safety.

Participants receive medals upon finishing. The event features aid stations, mandatory gear requirements due to unpredictable weather, and an after-party with medal presentations at Jacka Brothers Brewery. The festival fosters a vibrant atmosphere amidst remarkable natural surroundings. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
