Sprint Series Adventure Race: Lysterfield
Event location
Description
Organiser: Adventure Junkie
The Sprint Series Adventure Race at Lysterfield, VIC, on Sunday, 5 October 2025, offers an exciting multi-discipline challenge featuring running, kayaking, and mountain biking.
Teams of two navigate the course together using maps and a compass to locate checkpoints by foot, mountain bike, and kayak. The event includes three course options: a classic course for experienced racers, a novice course designed for beginners and families, and a duathlon course that excludes kayaking. Participants need only a sense of adventure and mountain biking gear—equipment hire is available, and kayaking gear is included in the entry fee. Children aged 10 and above may participate when accompanied by an adult.
Kayaking stages take place on a river, while running sections cover 4WD trails, walking paths, and off-road terrain. Mountain biking segments combine 4WD trails and single-track paths, providing varied terrain for all skill levels.
The classic course is longer and suited for weekend warriors familiar with adventure racing, whereas the novice course offers a shorter, introductory experience ideal for first-timers and family teams.
Distances:
4-Hour Adventure Race (Run + MTB + Kayak) in teams of two:
Novice: 3K + 8-10K + 2K
Classic: 5-7K + 15K + 5K
