Weekend in Wentworth 2027

Experience the seventh edition of Weekend in Wentworth, set for June 12-13, 2027, at the picturesque Wentworth Provincial Park. This long-standing trail run offers runners and walkers an unforgettable weekend adventure with three distinct options to suit every level.
The event kicks off on Saturday morning, inviting participants to choose from a grueling up-to-24-hour challenge or a more flexible 32-hour option that rewards those who complete the impressive distance of 100 miles with a coveted buckle. For those looking for a shorter but still rewarding experience, there's also a six-hour run on Sunday starting at 7 am.
Participants will navigate through Wentworth Provincial Park’s diverse terrain, covering approximately four and a half kilometers per loop. The course features single-track trails, gravel paths, and short stretches of pavement, offering runners the chance to explore the park’s natural beauty while enjoying low technical difficulty and minimal elevation changes.
Aid stations are strategically placed at the start/finish line, providing water, electrolyte drinks, lap boards for tracking progress, and basic nutrition essentials throughout the event. Runners can set up their own aid stations along the course route or enjoy free camping on site the night before to get a head start.
The weekend is themed around Hawaii’s vibrant culture, encouraging participants to wear their favorite Hawaiian shirts as they soak in the festive atmosphere. Post-race festivities include a complimentary BBQ at 4 pm and additional hot items like soup and grilled cheese available throughout the event for those still on course during night hours.
Registration fees contribute directly to the Wentworth Food Bank through a $10 donation from each participant, adding an element of community support to this unique running experience. For more details about aid station provisions and other logistics, participants will receive specific information closer to the race date.
Whether you're aiming for endurance or simply looking for a scenic run in a supportive environment, Weekend in Wentworth promises an unforgettable adventure through natural beauty and friendly competition.
All runners are encouraged to wear headlamps and reflective gear if they plan on running past dusk. The event welcomes participants of all abilities, making it the perfect opportunity to challenge yourself or simply enjoy the camaraderie among fellow enthusiasts.
