General information

Bowen Island Run for the ferry should be thought of as a trail run as a precaution and it should be noted that even though assistance, for the “wheeled” will be provided, there is one spot where there are a half dozen steps to get onto a bridge. A lot of the course is on pavement, but because of the portion traveled on park trails and gravel roads, runners are encouraged to exercise the caution they would on a trail run.

There is a 5 Kilometer and a 10 Kilometer route, both of which, start (after a lively and spirited warm-up, directed by fitness professional Fawn Gill and staff) on the wharf at Snug Cove, moments after the departure of the 9:30am ferry.

Run for the Ferry and Bowfest are a celebration of running, live entertainment, fabulous food and activities for the whole family. These spirited events highlight the best of what the Bowen Island community has to offer, including breathtaking scenery, unmatched hospitality and passionate community spirit.
