Located on Beaver Dell Road in the Penticton area, the Penticton 8.2K Trail Race and 3K Fun Run is part of the Interior Running Association cross-country race series. It offers two trail distances: an 8.2K course that blends dirt roads with short but challenging single-track sections, and a shorter 3K route suitable for newer runners. The course traverses rural terrain with a dirt parking area near the gravel pit.
The event emphasizes a supportive, community atmosphere, with on-site medical staff, a porta-potty at the start, and post-race refreshments, awards, and draws. No dogs are allowed, and participants must carry their own water, as there are no water stations. Entry fees apply by distance. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
