Join us on a field trip out to Coliseum Mountain (near Nordegg) for a fun day of hiking and trail running. This is a no fee event, self supported/self guided event, but a completed waiver and registration (link under tickets) for each participant is required.
The primary objective is "Coliseum Mountain" a 12.9 KM trail with 795 metres of elevation gain. The morning will start with steady, gradual switchbacks, before opening up along the final ridge to a nice, rounded summit. Complete the summit once, twice or whatever feels good to you that day!
