Run The Caves
Run The Caves is a trail and ultra race hosted at Warsaw Caves Conservation Area, located at 289 Caves Road, Warsaw, Ontario. The event is organized by Body and Mind Adventures with the Mind & Body BAM committee. A portion of registration fees will be donated to the CMHA Canadian Mental Health Association. The organizers promote environmental initiatives and the event is cup free.
Trails include mostly single track with a soft forest floor, rocks and tree roots, some sandy beach sections, and a few gravel road stretches. The route alternates between open viewpoints and areas shaded by large, mature trees, described as a form of forest bathing.
