Course Description

The race starts at Village Central Restaurant on Currawong Road and heads into the alpine plateau of Mt Baw Baw. Runners follow well‑marked trails through snow‑gum forests, open ridgelines and gentle climbs, with some technical sections on rocky ground. Each distance loops back to the village finish, offering spectacular views of the surrounding mountains and valleys. The course is mostly single‑track with occasional gravel sections, providing a mix of fast running and scenic endurance. Aid stations are positioned at key points, and the finish line is set beside the restaurant where participants can refuel and celebrate.

Weather & What to Pack

Morning runs are often sunny and dry, but clouds can build quickly at higher elevations. Dress in light, breathable layers and bring a hat and sunscreen. Carry a water bottle and consider a light waterproof jacket in case of sudden rain.
