Oak Ridges Moraine Adventure Relay
The Oak Ridges Moraine Adventure Relay is the charitable fundraising event for the Oak Ridges Trail Association (ORTA). The race is an epic one-day adventure relay that will take place on Saturday, June 13 2026, drawing athletes and outdoor enthusiasts from across Ontario. Spanning approximately 160km from Rice Lake to Aurora (with a shorter half-relay on the eastern course), the relay combines canoeing, mountain biking, road cycling, and trail running across the stunning Oak Ridges Moraine.
Join the action and help create an unforgettable experience for racers while supporting trail conservation. As a volunteer, you’ll experience the excitement up close and play a vital role in making it
happen. From cheering at checkpoints, assisting with timing, logistics and promotion to maintaining the trail in the lead up to the race – there’s a role for every skill set.
Volunteering for the Adventure Relay is about making a real impact on Ontario’s trails and being part of an adventurous outdoor community. Whether you can give a few hours or a full day, your contribution
matters.
