Event Details
Course Description
The WildBoar courses wind through the native bush of Brisbane Ranges National Park, starting at Boar Gully Campground. Runners tackle twisty single‑track, steep climbs, and occasional creek crossings, all set against sweeping views of granite outcrops and eucalyptus canopy. The 10km route stays on lower‑grade tracks, while the 21km adds longer ascents. The 42km and 50km ultras push deeper into the park’s backcountry, demanding endurance on rugged terrain and navigation of technical sections. Aid stations are spaced roughly every 10km, providing water, electrolytes and first‑aid support. The well‑marked course ensures confidence even on the longest loops.
Getting There
From Melbourne, take the M1 west to Geelong, then follow signs to Balliang via the Balliang Road exit. The Boar Gully Campground is sign‑posted off Balliang Road; there is free on‑site parking for participants. Public transport is limited – the closest V/Line stop is Balliang (about 5 km away), so a shuttle or rideshare is recommended. Arrive at least 30 minutes before your wave to allow check‑in and briefing.
Weather & What to Pack
June is winter in Victoria, so expect cool temperatures between 5 °C and 12 °C, with occasional light rain and crisp mornings. Dress in layers: a moisture‑wicking base, an insulated mid‑layer, and a wind‑proof jacket. A hat and gloves are advisable for early starts. Stay hydrated, but you’ll need less water than in summer; carry a small bottle and use the aid stations for electrolytes.
