Ross Running Festival 2026

The Ross Running Festival on Sunday 20 September is a unique event, which runs across the iconic Ross Bridge and around the outskirts of the historic township.

The relatively flat course and relaxed atmosphere, make this event perfect for those taking on a Half Marathon for the first time, with runners receiving plenty of support on each lap of the 10.5km course.

If a shorter event is what you prefer, there are 5km & 10km distances available, and for those wanting to really soak up the atmosphere and beauty of the town, there’s a walk option for both. For the younger runners there’s the Ross Runner’s 2km Kids Race with the proceeds donated to the Just Like Jack organisation.
