The X-Marathon Adventure Race promises an exhilarating challenge for all participants. It features a series of trekking legs highlighting Australia's landscapes' stunning diversity. Whether tackling the 24-hour, 12-hour, or 4-hour course, you'll find yourself immersed in various terrains, each presenting its own set of challenges and rewards.

Trekking Legs Overview

24-Hour and 12-Hour Courses: For those brave enough to take the 24-hour and 12-hour courses, the trekking legs will be a true test of endurance and navigation skills. You will face multiple trekking sections designed to push your limits and immerse you in the region's natural beauty.

4-Hour Course: The 4-hour course will feature a single trekking leg, perfect for those looking for a taste of adventure without the extended commitment. This shorter course still promises excitement and a sense of achievement.

Variety of Terrain

Coastal Trails: One of the highlights of the trekking legs will be the breathtaking coastal trails. Expect to navigate sandy paths, rocky shorelines, and potentially rugged cliffs, all while enjoying spectacular ocean views. As you make your way, the fresh sea breeze and the sound of waves crashing will be your companions.

Classic Australian Bush - you'll also trek through the classic Australian bush in stark contrast to the coastal sections. This terrain will offer a mix of eucalyptus forests, dense undergrowth, and open plains. The bush sections will require careful navigation and a keen eye for features, as well as the ability to tackle off-road sections where trails may be faint or non-existent. 

Skin Protection

Skin protection could be beneficial for those on the 24-hour and 12-hour courses. The dense undergrowth can scratch and irritate exposed skin, so long sleeves and pants are recommended.

Gaiters: Gaiters are a must-have for all trekking legs, especially given the thick undergrowth in many areas. They will protect your legs from scratches, bites, and debris, ensuring you can trek comfortably and safely.

The trekking legs of the X-Marathon Adventure Race are designed to test and thrill participants, offering an excellent opportunity to explore Australia's diverse terrains.

Whether you're navigating coastal paths or bushland, following trails or forging through the bush, every step will be an adventure. Equip yourself well, prepare thoroughly, and get ready to experience the natural beauty and challenging terrain of the X-Marathon Adventure Race.
