Sprint Series Adventure Race: Lane Cove, NSW

The 4WD trails, walking paths, off-road tracks, and a scenic river provide a truly mixed-discipline feel, not just a run with added elements. In the Sprint Series Adventure Race, teams use maps and compasses to navigate through checkpoints on foot, by mountain bike, and by kayak. This format requires steady decisions as much as leg speed. Expect a course that changes rhythm often: running on rougher paths, kayaking on the river, then mountain biking across a mix of 4WD trails and challenging single tracks. It is built for teams of two, with a novice option. The key rule is simple but easy to forget when things get messy: both team members must stay together.
