Course Description
The 5km course begins and ends within Point Walter Reserve, looping along the Swan River foreshore. Runners follow a smooth, sealed road that hugs the river, offering uninterrupted views of the water, the iconic Point Walter jetty and the surrounding parkland. The route is largely flat with a gentle undulation near the reserve’s central promenade, making it ideal for steady pacing. Along the way, participants pass through well‑maintained park paths, shaded tree‑lined sections and open grass areas, providing a pleasant mix of sun and shade. The circuit is clearly marked with signage and marshals positioned at key points to ensure a safe and enjoyable run for athletes of all abilities.

The race is held at Point Walter Reserve in the Bicton suburb of Perth. The reserve is easily accessed by car and offers on‑site parking. Public transport options are available, but for exact directions, parking details and any temporary road closures, please check the official Masters Athletics WA website.
