2026 RUN OFF-THE-GRID
Are you ready to break away from the Grid?
Join us for one of Northern Ontario's most rugged, rewarding, and remote trail races - right in the heart of peak autumn colours! With no roads and no pavement, this course is 100% trail and completely off-the-grid. It's just you, your footsteps and the quiet of the wilderness.
The race features a 12.5 km loop that winds through diverse terrain — including single track sections, old forest logging roads, rolling hills, steep climbs, rocky technical sections, creek crossings, our famous mud bog and gravel pit with a sandy dune descent. Each loop is run in the opposite direction to keep the challenge fresh and dynamic!
What truly sets Run Off-the-Grid apart is its incredible community atmosphere. From the cheers of lapping runners on the trails to the post-race celebration at the finish line, this event has become a favourite in the trail running community — not just for the course, but for the camaraderie, connection, and shared love of the outdoors.
A hike option is also available for the 12.5K and 25K distances — perfect for those who want to soak in the journey without the race clock.
