About this event
The GKI Trail Run is one of Queensland's most picturesque trail running events, set on Great Keppel Island in the Southern Great Barrier Reef. This marquee event invites participants to experience the island's natural beauty while choosing a challenge level that suits them.
The course offers multiple distance options ranging from 9.5km to 27km, featuring diverse terrain including pristine beaches, sandy and rocky trails, sand dunes, and rocky outcrops. Participants will encounter hills and ridges that reward their effort with spectacular panoramic views across the island.
Whether you're seeking an immersive exploration of the island or a rigorous physical challenge, this event caters to all ability levels. The event runs from 8:00am to 2:00pm. For the best experience, overnight accommodation on the island is recommended, though ferry services are available for day-trippers. Early morning ferry transfers depart at 6:30am from the mainland, arriving 45 minutes before the race briefing begins.
