Wandering Moose 12k, 25k, 35k

BC's best season closer takes place on October 10, 2026 in South East Kelowna on some of the BEST trails this area has to offer! 3 distances to choose from, with all of them finishing on the infamous Angel Springs section which is known for it's technical and beautiful terrain that has multiple creek crossings.

Courses:

• 12k: Runners will cruise along the KVR for 2.5k before dropping down the loamy trails of upper Myra Bailout trail and eventually merging into Angel Springs trail, which is a technical wonderland filled with roots and rocks and creek crossings.
• 25k: Starts on the historic KVR, and treats runners to some of the best single track trails of upper Myra Bellevue Provincial Park! Runners will have 1.5k of flat KVR bliss to spread out and warm up before hitting Capitan Nemo and starting their way down Lost Lake to Bellvue Access trail which eventually turns into Blancher's Silver. At the bottom of Blancher's Silver the 25k runners will turn left and descend down Doc Savage before starting a 4km climb on Lookout & Crawford trails, back up to the KVR where you'll have a 6km flat stretch before you start your mega descent down Myra Bailout and Angel Spring trails.
• 35k: Runners start on the historic KVR, and have 1.5k of flat KVR bliss to spread out and warm up before hitting Capitan Nemo and starting their way down Lost Lake to Bellvue Access trail. This upper section is the same as 2024, only you'll be running it in reverse. At the bottom of Blancher's Silver there is a split where the 35k runners turn right before continuing their descent down Vapour trail's technical goodness. There's a little climb up to connector before you'll need to dial in your descending skills again down to aid station 1 near Crawford parking lot. A good chuck of the next section of the 35k course runs the 2024 course in reverse. You'll make your way all the way back up to KVR via trails like Earring, Surf 'n' turf and Crawford trail.

Kids Event:

The distance is about 1.5km and all ages are welcome, however we typically see kids aged 5 to 10 participate. Kids under the age of 5 must be accompanied by an adult. It's fun event and not timed. Each kid gets a bib and finishers treat.
