Stefnufastur Trail Race - Camp Morton
The Stefnufastur Trail Race takes place at Camp Morton Provincial Park near Gimli, Manitoba on Saturday May 15, 2027. The event offers multiple distances on mostly flat multiuse trails that pass yurts, the campground, and the main park office.
Distances:
- 5 km
- 10 km
- 21.1 km
The 5 km course begins at the Camp Morton main clearing, crosses a small wooden bridge, and follows sections of Steeple View Trail and Birch Trail in Camp Morton East. The 10 km route extends north through straight, fast sections and loops that pass camp facilities before returning to parts of the 5 km course. The half marathon is two laps of the 10 km course. Elevation gain is low across all races, listed as 7 m for 5 km, 12 m for 10 km, and 24 m for 21.1 km.
Trail features include a few rolling sections, a ravine drop, and creek crossings. A stocked aid station with volunteers is provided for half marathon runners. The event includes custom finisher awards for each distance, top three finisher awards, race-day photography, and safety services on site. Limited parking is available at the park and on the entry road, and carpooling is encouraged.
Proceeds support training, equipment, and scholarships for the Royal Canadian Air Cadets in Gimli. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
