PIGLET
This may be the shorter course, but that don't make it easy! The Piglet will see you take on 24km. Setting off from Castle Hill Village you will wind your way through the trees climbing to reach the Hogs Back track.
​
Stick with the track towards Cockayne Alley before crossing over to Terraces Track and hitting your big hill climb. This is a technical part of the course and you'll need to be watching your way and hopefully you've kept up your energy for this gruelling 1.2km section.
​
Another steep section before hitting the wild open planes and watch for visual makers, there's no track here but we'll show you the way.
​
A quick stint on Cheeseman Ski Field Road before crossing the valley and emerging out of the gully will put you on the home stretch, joining the tail end of the Hogs Back track and descend back into Castle Hill village for your victory sprint to the finish line.
​
TEACUP
Take in the forest loop of the Valley Ultra. A stunning 10km loop, whether you're supporting someone on a longer distance, want to see what the Ultra craze is about or 10km is just your jam, this is a beautiful way to spend a Saturday morning in Craigieburn Valley.
​
Just because it's the shortest course, don't think we have let you off lightly, you'll know you've put in a stellar effort after taking on the Teacup!
