Cape2Cape Ultra Marathon

The "iconic Cape to Cape Track" forms the basis of this event, featuring coastal cliffs, untouched beaches, old karri forests, limestone caves, and expansive views of the Indian Ocean. The Cape2Cape Ultra Marathon offers a genuine point-to-point ultra experience, distinct from a typical trail run. It maintains a limited field and an entry standard for runners accustomed to continuing through the night. The route traverses distinct coastal locations such as Cape Leeuwin, Gracetown, Yallingup, and Cape Naturaliste. Creek crossings and "challenging elevation changes" punctuate the runnable segments. Runners should anticipate winter weather, significant coastal winds, potential rain, cool nights, and the mental fortitude required for "navigating remote wilderness areas" while carrying essential equipment. Participants are typically experienced ultrarunners, supported by crews where permitted, and individuals who recognize that completing the race demands significant effort.
