The Callous Crow

The Callous Crow is a challenging 21-kilometer trail race held at Crowbar Lake Trail in Porters Lake, Nova Scotia. Known as one of the toughest half-marathons in the region, the course features rugged single-track trails with over 700 meters of elevation gain, technical terrain including roots, rocks, and steep ascents and descents. The race takes place within the Waverley - Salmon River Long Lake Wilderness Area, offering scenic views of old-growth forests and granite boulders.

The event uses chip timing and includes two staggered start waves to reduce congestion. Proceeds support trail maintenance, and prizes are awarded to top finishers. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
