GCTR December Run
About the race
With thanks to Gold Coast Trail Runners and Council's Active & Healthy program, we will be hosting a monthly trail run, and for December we will be going up to Hellfire Pass.
It is one of our harder runs, with more hike than run, but the views are worth it and practising the skills of ascending and descending is important.
We'd love to see you as often as your lifestyle permits.
Meeting point and snacks
We will meet at the Belliss Road car park at Mount Nathan/Clagiraba.
The run is free and there will be snacks. Please register to help us cater.

The course
The run starts from the Belliss Road car park at Mount Nathan/Clagiraba. After an undulating opening, there is a largely uphill section rewarded with stunning GC Hinterland views. There is an option to tackle just Hellfire or a longer run that also includes Freeman's Lookout, with a long descent that will test the quads and skills.
