6KM - THE BURN

The Burn is a 6km trail run/walk loop designed for mates, teams and anyone who likes a bit of chat mixed with a solid challenge.

A small distance with a decent bite. After the opening kilometre of flat running, the course tilts upward into a 2.3km steady climb that lives up to its name. From there, it levels out briefly before joining Heartbreak Hill for the run or walk back down to the finish.

The route follows formed farm tracks and metal surfaces, winding through scenic farmland, pockets of native bush, forestry and classic hill country. It’s runnable, walkable and challenging enough to lift the heart rate while still keeping the social vibe intact.

Elevation gain: 253m (430m–620m)
Aid stations: 3.6km and finish line
