All of the Goldsborough Goldrush courses travel along the Goldfield trail - one of the most beautiful trails in FNQ.
Those runners with serious gold fever can tackle the "Goldrush Marathon", running the full length of the Goldfield trail to Babinda Boulders (and return). With 900 metres elevation and some technical trail, this is a run you'll remember.
We have something for everyone - if you're not ready to tackle the slopes of Bartle Frere you'll still find a challenge and beautiful scenery by entering the Causeway Crusade (18k), the Eureka 10 (10k), or the Nugget (5k).
Our start/finish location is the Goldsborough Valley Campground within the Wooroonooran National Park, the traditional country of the Malanbarra people. Enjoy a post-run swim in the Mulgrave River and a BBQ (included in your entry). Or make a weekend of it and camp too! Bookings through National Parks:
