On October 26, 2025, Telangana Runners organized the first-ever trail run in Ananthagiri, just outside Hyderabad. And it was something else. Over 1000 runners took on 5km, 10km, 21km, and 32km routes through forest trails, muddy paths, and hills. The route passed through the Anantha Padmaswamy Temple area — beautiful views, dense forest, and mud under every step. Aid stations were set up even at remote sag points deep inside the trail where vehicles couldn't reach. Volunteers went on foot to make sure no runner was left without support. After the event, a volunteer team went back and cleaned up all waste from the trail within a couple of days — leaving Ananthagiri just as they found it. Runners finished tired, muddy, and happy. For many, it was their first trail run ever. Ananthagiri Trail Run 2025 showed that Telangana has amazing trails worth exploring — and a community that knows how to take care of them.
