HALIBURTON FOREST TRAIL RACE

Welcome to the Haliburton Forest Trail Race

2026 will mark the 33rd annual occurrence of the event which saw its inaugural race take place in 1993. The race has grown steadily since its inception and once again we will offer your choice of 12K, 26K, 50K, 50 mile, and of course, our signature event, the Haliburton Forest 100 Miler.

The race takes place in the privately owned Haliburton Forest and Wild Life Reserve Ltd. starting Saturday, September 12, 2026 and ending Sunday, September 13, 2026.

There is a certain primal beauty found along the trails at Haliburton Forest and the absolute best way to experience it is by foot as you run on the rugged trails. Heavily forested, hilly and filled with lakes and streams it represents nature at it's best.

SEE YOU ON THE TRAILS!!
