Course Description
Whitfords Nodes Park offers a smooth, sealed circuit that winds through lush parkland and along the coastal fringe of Hillarys. Runners will start at the park’s main entrance on Whitfords Avenue, follow a flat, well‑marked loop that showcases native trees, open grassed fields and occasional ocean views. The 10.5km course combines two laps of the main loop, while the 7km and 3.5km options use shortened sections for a quicker turnaround. All routes are fully tarmac, making them ideal for a fast, comfortable run. Aid stations are positioned at the start/finish area, providing water and basic refreshments. The course is designed to be easy to navigate, with clear signage throughout.
Getting There
Whitfords Nodes Park is situated in Hillarys, about 21 km north‑northwest of Perth’s CBD. The venue is easily reached via the Mitchell Freeway (Exit 23) and Whitfords Avenue. On‑site parking is available near the park entrance (subject to space). Several Transperth bus routes serve Hillarys, providing public transport options. For exact directions, parking fees and timetables, please visit the official MAWA website.
Weather & What to Pack
February falls in the Australian summer, and the coastal climate of Hillarys is warm and sunny. Expect daytime highs between 18 °C and 30 °C, with low to moderate humidity and occasional sea breezes. Light, breathable clothing and a hat or visor are recommended, along with sunscreen. Stay hydrated by drinking water before, during and after the race, and consider carrying a small bottle if you’re sensitive to heat.
