This year the 37KM & 50KM courses will start once again at the Maitraya Private Resort, travelling over some of the most beautiful coastline the region has to offer. As Maitraya is private property this is one of the rare times riders will have access to this area!
Thanks to the Department of Parks and Wildlife the route will then travel through more breathtaking coastal scenery to the Emu Point channel crossing where riders will be ferried across from Mount Martin to Emu Point.
Emu Point will also be the starting point for our 17KM riders. The route will then travel along Middleton Beach, up Mt Adelaide and onto as much sneaky trail as we can sequence together!
17km and 37km riders will then head down the boardwalk to a fast finish on Stirling Terrace.
50KM riders will continue across to Mt Melville for some tough climbs, gnarly descents, and amazing view.. Riders will finish back at Stirling Terrace for a well deserved rest.
