Course Description
Set against the scenic backdrop of the Swan River, the Racecourse/Racewalk takes runners on a flat, paved loop through Burswood Park’s well‑maintained pathways. The 10 km and 5 km routes follow a straightforward road circuit that hugs the riverbank, offering occasional glimpses of the Perth skyline and lush parkland. The Age‑Graded 10 km walk follows the same course, providing a handicap option for walkers of all abilities. With clear signage, marshals at key points, and a start‑line at 7:30 am, participants can focus on pacing and enjoyment. The course’s gentle gradients and smooth surface make it ideal for both seasoned masters athletes and newcomers seeking a pleasant spring run.
