Kunanyi Mountain Run is an epic 3-day trail running festival, that celebrates running, community, and the famous mountain on Hobart's doorstep. In 2026 it returns for its 5th edition and you're invited to run with Kunanyi — known for its rich culture, history, and incredibly diverse landscapes.

With 10 run/hiking events (ranging from the Foothills 5km to the Ultra Solo 66km), there are options for all running (and walking) abilities.

The Palawa (Tasmanian Aboriginal people) generously welcome and share Kunanyi with trail runners. Whether you're a seasoned ultra runner or new to trails, you're invited to discover your own connection with this very special place.

Thousands of runners and supporters have started their own KMR stories. Will you join us in 2026 to run, connect, and celebrate five incredible years?
