This past month, Canberra’s trail running community came together at the Frith Road Substation in O’Connor for an action-packed night of testing, learning, and connecting. The Mont Trail Running Shoe Demo gave runners of all levels the chance to put the latest footwear from La Sportiva, On Running, Altra, and Hoka through their paces on a dedicated 1.2km trail loop that quickly became a Strava segment.
Nothing beats trying before you buy—especially when it comes to trail running shoes. Participants had the unique opportunity to test multiple models in real conditions, gaining a true feel for fit, grip, and responsiveness. Mont’s expert team and brand representatives were on hand to provide tailored advice, ensuring each runner found the right shoe for their needs and running style.

It wasn’t just about footwear. Attendees also got to experience high-performance eyewear from Julbo, designed for clarity and protection in varying light conditions. Plus, Pure kept everyone fuelled with hydration and nutrition products that support endurance and recovery.
Beyond the gear, the event highlighted the strength of Canberra’s trail running community. Runners swapped tips, shared experiences, and encouraged one another—whether they were seasoned ultramarathoners or first-time trail explorers. The buzz of excitement, combined with the perfect autumn running conditions, made for an unforgettable afternoon running on the trails.
A huge thank you to everyone who joined us, as well as to La Sportiva, On Running, Altra, Hoka, Julbo, and Pure for making the event possible. Whether you found your perfect trail shoe or simply enjoyed a morning on the trails, we hope to see you at the next Mont event!

Backcountry skiing, along with being an exhilarating sport, is a way to appreciate untouched, snowy landscapes that may usually remain out of reach for outdoor explorers. Backcountry skiing isn't for the fainthearted – it requires elements of both mountaineering and skiing – but the scenes can be well worth it. If you are ready to adventure beyond the well-travelled slopes and take your adventuring to the next level, Mont Adventure Equipment is here with a guide to help you get started with the right equipment.

Your outdoor or rock-climbing experience is largely determined by two factors: your climbing ability and your choice of indoor & outdoor climbing shoes. At Mont Adventure Equipment, we understand that the best outdoor climbing shoes are not just about the brand or the price but about finding a perfect match for your feet and climbing style.

After the western light had faded I got my camera out and planned on doing a little astro photography. Pleasantly, my first image showed a cheery red and green glow to the south. The Southern Lights were active!
