Boyne Valley 50 2026

Grand Hotel Many Peaks anchors the Boyne Valley 50, a multi-distance trail event on the Dawes Range section of the Boyne Burnett Inland Rail Trail. It offers the feel of a point-to-point run rather than a refined road race, starting at the hotel and heading toward Barrimoon through "beautiful valley surrounds and national parks." The course selection contributes to its character: a full route, uphill, downhill, or the "12k Taster." This variety ensures a mix of participants, from those aiming for a long challenge to others seeking a shorter experience on the rail trail. Expect trail surfaces, range country scenery, and a finish defined by the historic inland rail corridor, distinct from urban settings or large-scale event polish.
