Stromlo Running Festival
Saturday, 15 November 2025 to Sunday, 16 November 2025
Stromlo Forest Park, Stromlo, ACT
The Stromlo Running Festival from 15 to 16 November 2025 is Canberra's biggest trail running festival, held annually at Stromlo Forest Park, one of Australia’s best and most sought after dedicated off road running and cycling venues.
Co-founded by Australia’s marathon great Robert De Castella in 2009, the Stromlo Running Festival (SRF) has attracted participants from near and far - distances include; 5km, 10km, 15km, 30km and a Marathon, as well as a 2.5km Kids' event.
The event celebrates the strength, resilience, and courage of our community in the years that followed Canberra's devastating 2003 bushfires. It provides an opportunity for runners of all abilities to 'get off the road' and challenge themselves on wide open trails that take in sweeping views of Canberra, Black Mountain Tower, the National Arboretum, and the Brindabella ranges.
This is a cup-free event - bring your own cup/water bottle for refilling at aid stations during the race.
