Event Details
Course Description
The Coastal Pathway Ultra winds its way from Bells Parade in Latrobe, following the newly completed North West Coastal Pathway. Runners traverse a mix of sealed road sections, sandy beach stretches and compacted trail through three municipalities, offering sweeping ocean views, river crossings and native bushland. The 100 km and 64 km routes challenge endurance with rolling hills and occasional soft‑sand segments, while the 42.2 km, 21.1 km and 10 km distances showcase the same scenery on a more manageable scale. Aid stations are positioned at key points, and the loop returns to the start for a grand finish on the town’s main parade.
Getting There
The race starts and finishes at Bells Parade in the town of Latrobe, north‑west Tasmania. For detailed parking, public transport options and recommended arrival times, please refer to the official event website.
