APPLICATIONS for the Peaks and Trails Run opened last week and the organisers are thrilled the event finally looks like returning in August after being cancelled twice due to COVID lockdowns in 2020 and 2021.

Peaks and Trails will be a massive weekend of foot racing starting and finishing in Dunkeld, with a range of possibilities offered, including the ‘warm-up’ Mud-Dadjug Challenge (previously the Mt Abrupt Challenge) 6.2-kilometre Trail Run on Saturday at midday (with a staggered start).
