About Bear Mountain Trail Running Race 2026
Bear Mountain Trail Running Race is a single-day trail event on Bear Mountain in Mission, BC, with 8 km, 15 km, and 30 km options. The race sits in late spring and leans into sustained climbing rather than flat-speed running.
The 15 km loop is the core course, and the 30 km doubles it for runners looking for a bigger mountain test. A kids’ race is also part of the morning schedule, adding a family-friendly layer to race day.
Results are sent to ITRA and UTMB for performance index scoring, which gives the event an added draw for runners tracking trail credentials. For runners looking to stay in the region, it also fits neatly into the broader trail racing scene in British Columbia.
