All proceeds from these events, go directly back into the Forest Lea Trails Association. By participating, you are giving back to our community.  

Forest Lea Trail Run

The 2024 Forest Lea Trail Run is proud to have Holiday Inn Express Pembroke returning as it's title sponsor!

This race consists of trails that are primarily single track with its fair share of roots and rocks, and a little bit of dirt road thrown in here and there! Challenge yourself in one of two distances, 10 km, or 27 km. Both races start with a double track section to spread out the group, and then spend the rest of the time in the tight, technical trails. 

DATE: Sunday, August 11th, 2024
TIME: Staggered starts beginning at 8 am
LOCATION: Forest Lea Trails, Laurentian Valley
