COURSE MAPS

This courses below are not yet confirmed, and subject to change.
Swim Course
A beautiful clear water, ocean swim right off the beach.
Close

All swimmers will start together in waist deep water at the end of the boat ramp for a superb swim through the crystal clear water of Geographe Bay. Completing a 2 lap course of 750m per lap, swimmers remain within 200m of the coastline at all times (making for great viewing) whilst swimming over a sandy bottom kept alive with the fluttering of small fish in the shallows. After lap 2, exit the water up the boat ramp and enter Transition #1 in the car park just 30m from the water’s edge.

Bike Course
Thrilling 30.2km MTB course comprising 90% single track.
Close

Long course riders will complete a thrilling 30.2km MTB ride through the Meelup Regional Park, Country Club and surrounding areas as two loops of approx 15.1km each, that will have you on-the-rivet the whole way.

The Dunsborough Country Club and Cape Mountain Biker crews have been hard at work to provide a superb course that will include ~80% single track through ‘Brown Street’ and beyond with plenty of berms, jumps and fast straight aways through the bushland before a thrilling descent back to the TA at the Country Club after lap 1. Repeat this for a 2nd lap.

The MTB course will include heaps of single track but also plenty of over-taking opportunities (especially early on) to allow faster riders through. This ride will reward the skilled MTBer.

Run Course
Scenic 10.5K trail run course with a mix of wide gravel paths and moderate hills
Close

Exit the transition area and you’ll soon be up to full speed running through the Dunsborough Country Club to Meelup Beach coastal pathway on the outward section of the course. Runners turn at Curtis Bay and return on a small section of sand and rock and then resume your pace on good quality fast gravel tracks.

There is a final climb away from the coast before a fast single track descent back to the Country Club. Get a cheer from the crowd as you come back past the TA at the end of the lap then repeat the lap a second time. Then it’s into THE FINISH!
