Experience the Ultimate Trail Adventure
**Big Mountains | Epic Singletrack | Big Heart**
Come find your wild in Kaslo, BC, where the mountains meet Kootenay Lake and some pretty incredible trails are waiting to be explored.
The Kaslo Wild Ultra is a three-day, community-powered trail running event in the heart of the West Kootenays. Expect flowy singletrack, lush temperate rainforest, challenging climbs, riverside trails, and mountain views that make every uphill worth it.
Choose your own adventure: take on a single stage or go all in with one of our multi-day challenges. From a scenic 10 km to a demanding mountain ultra, there’s a little wild for everyone.
**THE RACES**
**Friday – The Lake Stage | 10 km**
Kick off the weekend with lakeside views, rolling trails, and a climb up the scenic Wardner Trail. A beautiful introduction to Kaslo’s backyard, with enough elevation to get your legs talking.
**Saturday – The Mountain Stage | 53 km**
Go big on Mount Buchanan. This is the main event for those who love a challenge: rugged, technical singletrack, serious climbing, and spectacular mountain scenery. Earn those views!
**Sunday – The River Stage | 22 km**
Wander through lush rainforest and along the river trails before climbing toward Strawberry Ridge. Flowing singletrack, forested paths, and plenty of West Kootenay character make this a memorable finish to the weekend.
**The Half Wild | 32 km**
Two stages, two days, and a whole lot of adventure. Take on the Lake and River stages for a taste of the Kaslo Wild experience.
**The Full Wild | 85 km**
Three stages. Three days. One wild weekend. Take on all three races and experience the full spectrum of Kaslo’s trails, from lakeside paths to the heights of Mount Buchanan.
Based at beautiful Kaslo Bay Park, this is more than a race. It’s a chance to explore a special corner of BC, connect with fellow runners, and experience the kind of community spirit that makes small-town trail running so good.
We’re a volunteer-powered event with a big heart. Proceeds support local trail organizations and Wildwood Discovery Society’s nature and art education programs for children.
Come for the trails. Stay for the views, the people, and the adventure.
**We’ll see you in the wild!**
