The Great Trek weaves through one of the city’s most iconic landscapes, where academia meets wilderness at the edge of the continent.
Rolling roads curve past research buildings and delve into Pacific Spirit Park’s cathedral of cedars, where fallen maple leaves cushion your footsteps and salty air drifts up from the cliffs below.
This final gathering of Vancouver’s running community offers multiple distances, from quick sunset chases in the 5K to the ultimate challenge of the 36.1K Hat-trick.
