The Perth Trail Series started in 2012 as a summer race series, consisting of 5 short but challenging trail races in the hills surrounding Perth, Western Australia. Events ranged from 9 to 19 kms, with all five races having a choice of two distances. We created a series to challenge both new and experienced trail runners. A points competition comprises part of the series.
Summer Series 2017 Dates: 8 & 22 January, 5 &19 February, 12 March!
Wallygrunta Long course: 13.6 kms
Wallygrunta Short course: 9.4 kms
The second race of the series gets you started on the serious hills. These tracks are mostly quite wide, which will allow competitors easy passing opportunities and gorgeous views from the hilltops. However, the price to be paid is a lack of shade on the highest sections (long course). An abundance of kangaroos in this park may provide some happy distraction from your bursting lungs. Both the short and long course follow the same course for the initial few kilometres, which gives you a slight uphill warmup before the big climbs begin.
