About Sooke Hills 50km and 25km 2026
The Sooke Hills 50km and 25km is a trail race weekend in Sooke, British Columbia, set for Saturday, May 30, 2026. Both distances start at Sooke Potholes Provincial Park and run into the coastal hills and forest above the Sooke River corridor.
The courses are built around the terrain that gives the event its character: singletrack, old logging roads, steady climbing, and sections where runners can settle into a rhythm. The 25km offers a shorter tour of the system, while the 50km extends deeper into the hills with bigger summits and more ascent.
It’s a locally run event with a practical, community feel. Runners can also find other races in British Columbia if they’re planning a West Coast season.
