Yarra River Running Festival
Sunday 23rd August 2026
Introducing the Yarra River Running Festival at Westerfolds Park, Templestowe on Sunday 23rd August 2026.
Choose your challenge from the 21.1km Half Marathon, 10km, 5km, or the family-friendly 2km Dash.
Set against the stunning trails of the Westerfolds Loop and the winding Yarra River, the day will feature a vibrant event village and an unforgettable race-day atmosphere — perfect whether you’re chasing a PB or soaking up the scenery.
All participants will receive a unique Yarra River finisher’s medal, post-race refreshments, sponsor giveaways, and an online finisher certificate to celebrate the achievement.
The 22nd Bellarine Rail Trail Run (17 or 34kms) will be held on Sunday August 23, 2026 as an out & back course from Queenscliff to Drysdale Railway Station & return (34km) or one-way Drysdale to Queenscliff (17km) along the BRT. The trail is tremendously scenic and ideal for running being wide, well marked and all on smooth, unsealed paths aside from the 4.5kms at the Queenscliff end (sealed). It is an ideal training run for the Geelong Running Festival & Melbourne Marathon events.
The course is relatively traffic free, but you do have to cross some major roads & the railway line, so please take care. The trail is also open to the general public and it is important that their use is not affected by the event. For this reason, this is NOT A RACE - there are no prizes for finishing first!
Entries capped at 300 runners
