Description
Organiser: Run Queensland
The Blackall 100, held on 18 October 2025 in Mapleton on the Sunshine Coast hinterland, is a premier trail running ultra marathon that challenges participants to traverse the scenic Blackall Range.
Runners, walkers, and hikers will experience diverse landscapes, including vibrant ferny forests, subtropical rainforest, towering eucalypt trees, picturesque waterfalls, and tranquil hinterland villages. The event offers three distances: 100km, 50km, and a 21km half marathon, catering to a range of endurance levels.
Starting and finishing at the Queensland Conference and Camping Centre (QCCC) in Mapleton, the Blackall 100 is not only celebrated for its pristine natural trails but also for its cultural significance, acknowledging the area's rich Indigenous heritage. The event features multiple checkpoints, support stations, and a welcoming community atmosphere with live music and food.
With a generous 24-hour cutoff for the 100km race, it is accessible to a wide range of participants and serves as a qualifier for the prestigious Western States Endurance Run. Accommodation options include on-site facilities and nearby bed and breakfasts in the Sunshine Coast hinterland.
