Traverse the Valley
Traverse the Valley is a DontGetLost AdventureRunning event on September 27, 2026 in Dundas, ON, with the finish at Robert E. Wade Ancaster Community Park. The course is planned to use only official Dundas Valley trails and requires navigation from point to point.
The race is run as a point to point format with participants transported to a remote start and returning to the finish along marked trails. Checkpoints must be visited in the order shown on the official race map.
Distances include:
- 10 km point to point course
- 5 km (ish) point to point course
Competitors must remain on official Dundas Valley trails. Official trails are described as wide enough for small vehicles and are marked periodically with trail posts. The race map highlights all usable trails using the same trail marker symbols that appear on the trail posts. For participants less confident with off trail navigation, the event offers the option to follow a trail bunny guide along the official trail network.
Categories are Junior Women (Under 18), Junior Open (Under 18), Adult Women, Adult Open, Masters Women (50+), and Masters Open (50+).
Entry fees vary by registration period. Fees include race map copies, post race food, event swag, and a 2026 DontGetLost Adventure Running membership for race insurance; fees do not include HST or online transaction charges. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
