The Paluma Ultra is a 52km ultramarathon trail run race, that will challenge your physical and mental abilities as well as awaken your sense of adventure and indulge your inner child as you traverse a fun, technical and diverse course.
Having spent countless amount of hours and days in the World Heritage listed Wet Tropics region of Paluma Range National Park it has instilled an immense appreciation for the beauty of this place. One of our other events, The Paluma Village Trail Run has been around for over 10 years and we thought it is time to share even more parts of this special place with the avid trail runners.
The 50km Ultra Trail Run course takes you through pristine wet tropics rainforest, past waterfalls and through refreshing creek crossings. It then descents into dry eucalypt forest and cattle country and wide open spaces before climbing back into the dense rainforest parts of Paluma.
This time of the year, Paluma Range is a great escape from the heat in Townsville. Situated at almost 1000m, the Paluma Range is cooler than the coastal region and it makes for great trail running conditions in October.
