Bondi to Manly Ultra 2026

From Bondi Beach to Manly Beach, this point-to-point ultra earns its reputation the hard way: harbour trails, bush tracks, seaside promenades, and enough exposed coast to make you respect your pacing. The Bondi to Manly Ultra traces the spectacular coastline between two of the world’s most iconic beaches and feels less like a road race than a long, runnable argument with the shoreline. The course works through the Manly Scenic Walkway and North Head Walk late on, with Clontarf Reserve, Tania Park in Balgowlah Heights, East Esplanade, and Manly Beach pulling in runners and supporters near the end. Expect some technical stair sections and steady climbing, but also a “challenging but highly runnable event” where the famous finish line will call like a siren song. Manly makes the aftermath easy: ice baths, massage chairs, live music, and a recovery session with a dose of celebration.
