The Howling Ghost Trail Race is an annual trail running event held at the Springwater Conservation Area in Aylmer, Ontario, about 40 minutes from London. Scheduled for September 27, 2025, the race offers multiple distances: 8k, 16k, and 24k loops through the scenic Carolinian forest. A new Night Howl 8k race requires headlamps, and participants can also take on a Day/Night Challenge by running both day and night events.
The course features wide, groomed, and runnable trails suitable for all levels. Amenities include aid stations, free race photos, finisher medals, and swag. The event supports the Children's Health Foundation and encourages costumes with prizes for best outfits. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
