All courses have been measured using GPS technology, however may vary slightly depending on track approvals and in the event of extreme weather conditions.  The course will be marked and all efforts will be made to make it easy to follow.

Track surfaces will vary significantly throughout the course including river flats, open woodland, technical loose rocky single trail, 4WD track, sand, tree roots and everything in between. The use of hiking poles is strongly discouraged across all event distances.

We strongly encourage our 20km & 50km participants to be physically prepared and conscious of your personal limitations in these off trail courses.

Being August in the Western District, expect mud, water, slippery conditions and don’t expect to see much bitumen!

We do not allow the use of strollers/prams on any of these trails.
