Knee Knackering North Shore Trail Run 2026

Sat, Jul 11, 2026
North Vancouver, BC

Hosted byKnee Knackering North Shore Trail Run

Knee Knackering North Shore Trail Run 2026 is set for July 11, 2026 on Vancouver’s North Shore. The race covers 30 miles on a point-to-point trail route, beginning near the Nelson Canyon Park / Whyte Lake trailhead area in West Vancouver and finishing at Panorama Park in Deep Cove.

It’s a classic North Shore mountain day: sustained climbing, rugged forest trail, and a route that asks for steady pacing more than speed. The finish in Deep Cove gives runners a clear endpoint after a demanding traverse across one of the region’s best-known trail corridors.

For runners looking for a long trail challenge in BC, this sits squarely in the technical mountain category, with the Baden-Powell trail forming the backbone of the course.

For runners comparing local trail options, it fits alongside other trail races in North Vancouver.

Course

Surface: Trail
Address: Horseshoe Bay, West Vancouver, BC, Canada
Location: North Vancouver, BC

The course follows the Baden-Powell trail across the North Shore Mountains, moving from the West Vancouver side toward a sea-level finish at Panorama Park in Deep Cove. Expect sustained climbing and descending on rugged forest trail, with a technical mountain profile rather than a fast runnable route.

The race uses a point-to-point setup, so start and finish are in different locations. The route is built around a full traverse of the North Shore terrain, with aid checkpoints along the way.
