Geraldine Adventure Race

Adventure Racing is an exciting & challenging team sport. It involves travelling on foot and by mountain bike to collect checkpoints marked on a map. The course will take teams on an exciting, cross country adventure through native bush, streams, farmland and trails. The course will be kept secret until the day before the race and you will receive your maps with your race packs so you can plan your strategy and route choice. Choose from three or six hour races.
