Glen Forrest
Our next MTBO event will be located in the area between Glen Forrest and Mahogany Creek, using sections of the Heritage Trail. The Medium and Long courses use the extensive bush reserves south of the Heritage Trail.
This event is suited to beginners, families, and runners. E-bikes welcome. The Glen Forrest Gourmet Café on Railway Parade is open from 8:00 am to 3:00pm and is highly recommended for drinks, cakes and lunches.
This event uses MapRun6 (app available for iPhones or android smartphones) for punching - see Eventor for instructions on how to set this up.
