Event Details
Course Description
The Swissmurdie courses wind through the forested hills of Mundy Regional Park, offering 4‑6 km (Green), 9‑12 km (Blue) and 12‑16 km (Black) on remote trails. Runners will tackle gentle climbs, rocky sections and occasional steep climbs, with stunning waterfall lookouts and panoramic views of Perth. The routes are clearly marked with blue flagging tape and PTS arrows, and aid stations provide water, fruit and electrolytes at roughly the halfway points. Whether you’re a beginner on the Green or an experienced trail runner on the Black, the scenery and community atmosphere keep you motivated from start to finish.
Getting There
The event is held at Mundy Regional Park, 140 Palm Terrace, Lesmurdie. Park at the Lower Lesmurdie Falls Car Park and follow the PTS crew to the verge of Palm Terrace and Lewis Road. Expect a short walk (up to 15 min) to the start/finish area. Car‑pooling is encouraged; check the official website for detailed parking and transport information.
