Black Mountain Run Up & Power Walk
Event location
Description
The Black Mountain Run Up & Power Walk takes place on Tuesday, 18 November 2025 in Canberra, ACT. This free monthly event, held on the third Tuesday of each month, offers a challenging 2.6 km route starting from Clunies Ross Street, Acton, and finishing at the summit of Black Mountain.
Participants begin on a mostly flat 800-meter 4WD trail alongside the Botanic Gardens fence. At Frith Road, the course turns left and ascends for approximately 400 meters before a right turn marked by the Centennial Trail signpost. After passing through the Canberra Nature Park gate, runners and walkers turn left onto the Summit Trail. Near the summit, a final right turn on the concrete path leads to the finish line at the peak of Black Mountain, where participants gain 236 meters in elevation from start to finish.
The event starts promptly at 12:45 pm, with registration and briefing between 12:30 pm and 12:40 pm. After finishing, participants record their times, and event photography is taken at the start and finish points, usually published on the Australian Mountain Running Facebook page the same day.
The Black Mountain Run Up & Power Walk is organised by the Australian Mountain Running Association and welcomes all fitness levels to enjoy this scenic and invigorating course.
