Oakville Remembrance Trail Run 2026

The Oakville Remembrance Trail Run is a fall event held in Oakville, Ontario, offering 5 km and 11 km routes along the 16 Mile Creek trails. The event coincides with Remembrance Day, bringing together runners and walkers focused on fitness, community, and supporting those who have served. All proceeds benefit Wounded Warriors Canada, specifically for mental health support for veterans, first responders, and their families. The run starts in Lions Valley. The shorter route provides an accessible option, while the 11 km route offers a more challenging run through the valley. The inaugural event attracted 200 participants and raised over $20,000. The addition of the 5 km distance now accommodates families, walkers, and less experienced trail runners. The event's purpose is to gather in Oakville to honor Canadian veterans, support first responders, and raise awareness for the mental health challenges these groups face.
