Wildsight’s old-growth run is back for its second year!

Join us for a 7-kilometre run through a spectacular old-growth stand and learn all about the Inland Temperate Rainforest on Revelstoke’s doorstep. 

During the run, conservation specialist Eddie Petryshen will be sharing his in-depth knowledge about the fascinating ecology of this ancient forest. 

We welcome runners of any and all abilities!

What you need to know:

  • Participation will be capped at 50 runners, and there will likely be two groups.
  • While the run will primarily be on gravel roads, please be prepared for some uneven surfaces and dress appropriately.
  • We will be providing some light refreshments for after the run, but please bring a water bottle.
  • The meeting spot is on Downie Creek FSR off Highway 23N, about 45 minutes north of Revelstoke.
  • The turn off from Highway 23N will be clearly marked.
  • If you are coming with a friend, we recommend carpooling — you’ll receive a link to a carpooling spreadsheet after registering.
