Peaks and Trails is a challenging trail running event, starting and finishing in the heart of picturesque Dunkeld.

They are a community-run event that is powered by a group of passionate local volunteers who love to showcase their town and give back to our community. The weekend offers something for all levels of trail enthusiasts with five distance options.

All distances include sections of the newly opened Grampians Peaks Trail and take in the beautiful southern Grampians (Gariwerd) landscape. The longer run options also include trails on privately owned land, normally inaccessible to the public. Runners will experience a range of landscapes and stunning postcard views on these trails surrounded by the four most southern peaks: Mt Strugeon (Wurgarri), Piccaninny (Bainggug), Mt Abrupt (Mud-Dadjug and Signal Peak.
