About
The Bare Creek Trail Run is an exciting annual event, held every November, and takes place in the bushland of St Ives on Sydney's leafy north shore. The run weaves its way through the picturesque fire trails of the Garigal National Park.
See course map and description for detailed information.
The event comprises three different challenges: 2 km dash – ideal for our younger community members enabling them to experience the thrill of participating in an event and an introduction to our gorgeous bushland.
6 km family walk/run – a great introduction to trail running.
10 km run – the event for the more serious runner.
The objectives of the event are to bring the community together with a family-orientated fun day as well as a serious runner's challenge. The run includes online entry and payment, timing chips and fabulous prizes.
The State Emergency Service is supporting the event ensuring that the safety aspects are well covered and in turn the run supports the SES by way of donation.
