Scenic Rim Ultra
The Scenic Rim Ultra is a multi-distance trail running event in the Scenic Rim region of Queensland, Australia, held on 8 August 2026. The event offers several race distances and is staged as a loop that starts and finishes at Lilybrook Recreation Area on Beaudesert Boonah Road.
Distances include:
- 10 km
- 25 km
- 42 km
- 65 km
- 105 km
- 100 mile
The course crosses four mountains and sections of the Dugandan Range, passes Wyaralong Dam, and uses private trails not normally open to the public. Surface types include dirt roads and single track through dense forest. The route involves substantial elevation gain (noted as 4000 m plus across some distances), steep climbs and technical downhills. The loop returns to Lilybrook Recreation Area.
Organisers state generous cut-offs and on-course support and list ITRA accreditation for several distances; the 105 km distance is listed as awarding 4 ITRA points, the 65 km distance 3 points, and the 25 km distance 1 point. Finishers receive event-specific rewards; 105 km finishers are noted to receive a cowboy hat. Entry windows are provided for early bird, standard and late entries in late 2025 and 2026.
