Lincoln Quilliam

The Lincoln Quilliam is part of the Kunanyi Trail Series, held at Tolosa Park in Glenorchy, Tasmania. It offers 21km, 10km, and 5km trail running distances. The primary event is the Tolosa Half, a challenging mountain half marathon. It begins on the outskirts of town, soon entering open woodland before progressing into thicker, mixed forest. The shorter races maintain the trail character, providing varied participation options: the 10km route concludes at Old Hobartians Track, and the 5km “Taster” is suitable for young trail runners, adults seeking a shorter distance, and individuals new to trail running. The Half marathon extends to The Springs near the midpoint, incorporating rocky, technical terrain, handcrafted wooden bridges, and a downhill section on the purpose-built North-South track. The scenery features tall eucalyptus trees and lichen-adorned dolerite rock formations. Organisers note the courses are rocky in sections but mostly smooth. The 5km is described as manageable with a pram, though an all-terrain model with a roll cage is recommended because of the uneven path. An Event Hub is available for families and support crews, offering children’s activities and coffee from Bean and Leaf. AUTRA members are eligible for a discount on race entry.
