This thrilling 3-stage adventure race combines trekking, mountain biking, and kayaking across some of the most stunning landscapes on the NSW South Coast. Each stage is a challenge of its own, but after a full day of racing, you’ll enjoy a well-earned night’s rest before taking on the next stage the following day.

There’s a racing option for every level:

  • Epic: All three days – the ultimate adventure.
  • Classic: Saturday only – a full day of action.
