Royal Park hosts the start and finish at its southern end, with the course extending through the park and adjacent streets. This is a club-style handicap run situated in a charming coastal town at the mouth of Port Phillip Bay, offering a setting that requires little embellishment.
Underfoot conditions are road running on flat to gently undulating terrain, accommodating beginners while allowing faster runners to push their pace. The Point Lonsdale Lighthouse and Rip Views offer a distinctive backdrop. Staggered starts foster a friendly yet competitive atmosphere, uniting runners of various paces in a shared pursuit towards the finish line.
