This time of the year, Paluma is a great escape from the heat in Townsville. Situated at over 900m, the Paluma Range is cooler then the coastal region and it makes for great trail running in October.
Race HQ, start and finish for all distances is at the village green in Paluma. There is an array of trails around the village, crossing creeks, passing water falls and lookouts.
