Come and run with us at the Brimbank Park Running Festival where there is a trail run for every member of the family. Brimbank Park is our local community jewel. Only 15 minutes north-west of the city, Brimbank Park offers a mixture of open spaces, wooded river trails, picturesque river crossing and just a couple of climbs to challenge you.

There is something to suit all abilities and ages with a distance to suit everyone. You can walk, run or a bit of both. Our aim is to challenge you in a fun and friendly place.

Enjoy a coffee at the Lumbar & Co. cafe while the kids explore the Brimbank Park playscape, a great day out for everyone. Join us as a participant or as a spectator encouraging all as they strive to achieve their goals, be it the 2km fun run or 50km endurance.

If you would like to help out on the day please let us know. We would love to have you help as a volunteer.

Join our TEAM CHALLENGE and enter as a team from your school, club or workplace. Great prizes to be won. Earn 1 point for each kilometre you run. The team who covers the most kilometers is the winner. Decide on a team name and make sure you include it when you register.

**Trailsplus uses the Humanitix Ticketing System. This is an awesome ticketing platform run by a not-for-profit organisation that donates 100% of the profits from booking fees to a humanitarian cause as chosen by Trailsplus. For this race, the donation will go towards a better start for disadvantaged Indigenous students.
