Yasur Volcano Run 2025
Be part of the first-ever community-owned and led international race on an active volcano — a world-unique event hosted by the communities of East Tanna.
A Once-in-a-Lifetime Race Experience
Organised by a Local Organising Committee (LOC) made up of tourism operators, chiefs, youth and women leaders, and transport associations, the Yasur Volcano Run is more than a race — it’s a powerful blend of adventure, cultural pride, and social impact.
The Trail – From Sea to Summit
Pikinini Race
The Pikinini Race is a unique opportunity for one child (aged 8 to 15) to run alongside a parent, family member, or guardian in a shorter yet equally powerful race experience. Taking place in parallel with the main event, the Pikinini Race will lead duos of one adult and one child on a breathtaking journey through the Tanna landscape.
This is more than a race — it’s a shared memory, a first adventure, and a celebration of strength, support, and connection between generations. Whether you’re introducing your child to trail running or just want to create a once-in-a-lifetime family experience, the Pikinini Race is the perfect way to be part of the Yasur Run spirit.

Carbon Footprint Reduction

These projects are designed in collaboration with local leaders and aim to support the communities hosting the race. Full details of the funded initiatives will be shared with all participants.
