Where Trail Run Wine Weekend Avoca 5K starts and finishes
Trail Run Wine Weekend Avoca 5K starts at Mount Avoca Winery. We haven't been able to place those on a map accurately enough to show one — a pin in the wrong place is worse than no pin.
These are the start and finish points, not the route. Verus doesn't hold course files for this race, and drawing a line between two pins would be a guess you might end up training on.
Full Trail Run Wine Weekend Avoca 5K Route Breakdown
Hosted at the stunning Mount Avoca Winery in Victoria's Pyrenees wine district, the Trail Run Wine Weekend is designed to be the perfect run (or ride) weekend. Whether you are stepping up for a marathon-distance epic, a half, a fiver or bringing the kids for the 2.5km dash, there's a distance for everyone. Saturday courses feature the legendary 'Tasty Trail' Cheese and Wine Aid Station - pause mid-race on the final hill for a nip of wine and a mouthful of cheese to power you through to the finish. Plus there's the world's first-ever night-time Wine Mile Time Trial, a 1.6km sprint around the dam under the stars. Sunday, team up with your mates for the 21km Cab Sav Laps Relay, or shake out the legs with a quick, tasty 5km dash before packing up camp.

Training Strategy for Trail Run Wine Weekend Avoca 5K
4-8 weeks is enough for a 5K, whether it's your first or you're chasing a PB. Short, sharp interval and tempo sessions matter more here than overall mileage.
This is a largely flat course, so most of your long runs can mirror that — flat and steady, building time on feet rather than hill strength.
Ease off mileage in the final few days, keeping a short, sharp race-pace effort or two to stay sharp. Arrive at Mount Avoca Winery fresh, energized, and primed — not fit, fresh.
Lock in your target pace using the interactive splits calculator below — no official pacers are confirmed for this event, so a pace band on your watch is the more reliable option.
Test your race-day fuel and hydration plan on your long training runs, not for the first time on race day — check the Race Day Checklist below for what's actually on this course.
5K Nutrition & Fueling Plan
A normal diet is fine. There is no need to carb-load for a race of this length.
Eat a carbohydrate-focused breakfast two to three hours before the start, and stick to something you've already tested in training rather than trying anything new.
No on-course fuel is needed at this distance for most runners — water stations are the usual provision.
A mix of carbohydrate and protein in the hour or so after finishing supports recovery.
