The Trail Running Series - Silvan
The Trail Running Series - Silvan is the third race in the 2026 Trail Running Series and takes place on Sunday 2 August 2026 in Silvan. The event runs on trails in the hills of Silvan and is presented as one of three wilderness race locations in the series, all located within about 90 minutes of Melbourne.
The race offers multiple distance options:
- 7km
- 15km
- 22km
Silvan uses a super social handicap format for the race, which staggers competitors to produce a socially oriented field. Series events commonly include village amenities such as live music, barista coffee, food trucks, free beer and on-site massage, creating a casual atmosphere around the finish area.
The event description notes that the series brings together handpicked routes through forested and hilly terrain and that courses are provided in short, medium and long options to accommodate different race choices. The Silvan race is described as part of a winter series of three Sundays of trail racing, with the collection of races intended to offer scenic runs near Melbourne and communal post-race facilities.
