Swan Valley
Jumbuck Ridge is a great area close to Perth with beautiful views over the city and the Swan Valley. The streams are flowing and the bush is very pleasant at this time of year. The hard and moderate courses are mostly downhill as the start is 75 m higher than the finish, while the E and VE course remain at lower altitude. Enjoy a picnic after the event near the roaring rapids.
Please note: As the start and finish of this event are in Walyunga National Park, standard Parks and Wildlife entry fees apply on the day for those who do not have an annual park pass. Fees must be paid at the pay station on the way into the Park. If possible, please carpool to save money and space in the car park.
