About the race
The Mount Glorious Mountain Trails is a trail running event held near White Cedar Park, Dundas on Sunday 8 November 2026. The meeting includes two race distances and hosts the Queensland Mountain Running Championships for specified divisions.
The event distances:
- 22 km course with 1,200 m total climb and 650 m descent.
- 11 km course with 340 m climb and 340 m descent.
Both courses use singletrack and firebreaks through rainforest on the west side of the ridge. The 22 km route climbs from Cedar Flats valley to England Creek (a manned midpoint checkpoint) then continues with a sustained climb to Mount Glorious and a stone-lined western ridge single trail to the finish near Maiala Park. The 11 km course runs down Joyner’s Ridge Road to a turnaround point then returns and joins the western ridge single trail to the same finish clearing.
Access to the start is by organiser-provided buses from Samford Soccer Club; there is no parking at the start location. The field is limited (200 entrants in 2026). Entry conditions include a minimum age of 18 on race day and mandatory self-carried water of 1 litre checked before the race. Water top-ups are available at two manned checkpoints and two self-help points; no cups will be provided so runners must carry a refillable container. Entry fees vary by distance and discounts apply for TRAQ members. Refunds are available up to two weeks before the event less an administration fee.
