DEVILBEND TRAIL RUN 2026

Devilbend's 50th running

The Mornington Peninsula Athletic Club is delighted to welcome our community to this year's edition of the Devilbend Trail Run on SUNDAY 16 AUGUST 2026.

This year will be the 50th running of Devilbend. We started as a 30km road race in 1976. Then became a half marathon. Finally we turned into a Trail Run. So come celebrate our 50th running of Devilbend.

Note. For those who do their maths, it would have been 51 except for a year of due to Covid!

ANYWAY

Whether you're looking for a fun exercise challenge outdoors, wanting to run further or faster than last year, or are looking to dip your toe into the exciting world of trail running - the Devilbend Trail Run is the event for you!

Whatever your fitness goals, come and experience a unique event that explores one of the hidden gems of the Mornington Peninsula, the Devilbend Natural Features Reserve.

Winding its way through the pristine surrounds of the reservoir, our courses travel along the trails and tracks of the reserve, plus a 1.5km gravel road section for the 21.1km run. From grass to gravel, stones, mud and even clay, the course is as versatile as it is challenging, unexpected and fun!

Bring the family and make a day of it exploring the beautiful surrounds, or recuperate at one of the many local cafés or wineries in the region.
