Movement is Medicine Elephant Mountain Challenge

This Spectacular 16km route will start at the Lions Bluff trailhead, climbing 1200m up to the CBC tower, traversing Nelson’s iconic Elephant Mountain, then descending down past Flagpole and Pulpit Rock to Johnstone Road. You’ll finish off with a run/walk across the Orange Bridge into Lakeside Park. It’s approximately 13km of well marked trail and 3km of road. This challenge is open to all fast hikers and runners. Please carry enough water for you to reach the Pulpit Rock trailhead on Johnstone Rd. There will be a checkpoint between Flagpole and the CBC tower with basic first aid if needed.
