Held in one of South Australia’s best-kept secrets, and just 45 minutes from the CBD, starting and finishing on the grounds of the beautiful Hardys Tintara Cellar door, the half marathon course takes in the Shiraz Trail between McLaren Vale and Willunga, with a loop along the rail trail between McLaren Vale and Seaford. The 10km and 5km courses are a fast dash towards Willunga and back.  Although the current course is available, we may be looking at alternate courses in the area to cater for ever increasing runner numbers.

These runners have run this race more than once, Maybe you will be joining them? HAVE A LOOK HERE

The McLaren Vale Running Festival course has been measured to AIMS standards.
