The course follows the Bay Trail for most of the route, with asphalt sections and passages through foreshore camping grounds. The 5km and 10km courses head towards McCrae before returning to Rosebud; the half marathon also extends towards Rye. The trail remains open to the public, and participants must keep left and follow the marked turnaround points.
