Sprint Series Adventure Race: Manly Dam, NSW 2026

Manly Dam park shapes this race: bushland trails, 4WD tracks, purpose-built mountain bike lines, and a kayak leg on calm, safe waterways. The Sprint Series Adventure Race: Manly Dam, NSW is a team-of-two multi-sport outing, not a footrace, with navigation and checkpoints turning the area into "nature’s playground." It offers an outdoorsy mix of effort and problem-solving where participants get muddy, switch disciplines, and navigate by map as much as by pace. The course remains secret until race morning, making map analysis and route planning part of the challenge. Expect "lush forest scenery, exciting terrain," and checkpoints in unexpected locations. Beginners, families, first-timers, and seasoned adventurers participate, with children over eight permitted with an adult and stable sit-on-top kayaks provided.
