Mt Coot-Tha Trail Festival
The Mt Coot-Tha Trail Festival is a one-day trail running event held at Legacy Way Car Park, Mount Coot-tha, Queensland, Australia. The 2026 edition brings together multiple races that were previously staged across several days into a single festival day.
All races begin and finish on the same trails and share a common finish area. The program includes a children’s loop, a mid-distance course, and a half marathon, offering a range of on-trail distances and experiences in the same location.
Course descriptions:
- Billy The Kid - 2 km kids loop
- Hightail - 12 km fast, flowing singletrack with rolling climbs and descents
- Surefoot - 21.1 km half marathon on technical trails with rolling climbs and descents
Billy The Kid is designed as a safe, short loop for young children; parents and carers may run alongside. Hightail is described as an entry point to trail running with a mix of smooth singletrack and varied terrain. Surefoot covers a half marathon distance and emphasizes technical trail sections and sustained climbs.
Where pricing applies, the listed entry fees include mandatory charges and event fees. The festival format consolidates the series into one shared event for all distances. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
