Buckley's 24 Adventure Race
Event location
Description
Organiser: Wild & Co
The Buckley’s 24 Adventure Race will take place on 6-7 December 2025 in Lorne, VIC, Australia. This challenging team event features trekking, mountain biking, kayaking, and other adventure disciplines.
The race moves to a new location each year but remains within easy reach of Melbourne’s CBD. In 2025, Lorne—a scenic coastal town on the Great Ocean Road known for its ocean and rainforest landscapes—will host the event.
The full course is a classic non-stop 24-hour adventure race where teams of two or four navigate an arduous 120+ km route, revealed only hours before the start. Teams must be fully self-sufficient and prepared for a demanding, unsupported journey through varied terrain.
The half course covers just over half the distance, approximately 70 km, with teams also given 24 hours to complete it. While still challenging, the shorter distance offers teams a greater chance to finish, balancing endurance with strategy.
Both courses combine trekking, mountain biking, and kayaking legs, testing a wide range of skills and stamina. Participants should expect a tough, exhilarating race designed for experienced adventure racers seeking a true endurance challenge.
Distances:
24 hour adventure race
Half course ~ 70K+: Trek 10-15K + MTB 40-50K + Kayak 10-15K
Full course ~ 120K+: Trek 15-25K + MTB 70-90K + Kayak 15-25K
