Our second race in our 2025 series. Urban Trail Racing is crossing the 'seas' to run our inaugural Half Marathon Trail Race on McNab's Island! Join us on this island as we race by stone walls of Fort McNab's, past the iconic lighthouse, and along the beach with amazing views of the city.
Don't get lost!
New route for 2025!
Getting to the Island
This race is unique since it is on McNab's Island, and getting everyone to the island in time for their race requires more work! Some people may have the means to get there themselves. But for the rest of us we need a boat ride over to the island.
That's where our friends at Sea Halifax come in. They have the knowledge, and the experience, to get everyone over to the island in time for their race, and to get them back afterwards.
When you register for the race you will be able to select your departure/return location to their downtown Halifax pier or from King's Wharf in Dartmouth to McNab's Island. They will get you to the island in 7-15 minutes. Select the option based on your race distance - 7km, 14km, 21km.
For the return they will be operating boats continually until 3 pm. As each boat fills up it will depart. It is your responsibility to be at the wharf for departure from the island.
We are super excited about this partnership with Sea Halifax and appreciate their ability to move so many people to the island so quickly.
