About this event
Join the Rottnest Running Festival, a full-day celebration of running on the stunning Rottnest Island. This community event features multiple race options including a marathon, half marathon, 10km run, and 5km fun run, catering to runners and walkers of all levels. A highlight of the festival is the traditional bagpipe ceremony that opens the marathon at sunrise, with the iconic sound echoing throughout the course at Armstrong Hill.
The marathon course features four scenic laps that circumnavigate the island's central salt lakes via sealed roads, while half marathoners complete two laps, 10km participants tackle one lap, and 5km participants enjoy an out-and-back route. All proceeds from this event support the Royal Flying Doctor Service, making your participation a meaningful contribution to an important cause.
