Have you been in Lorne during the Lorne Adventure Race?  Be a contestant or an enthusiastic spectator for this event which is not for the faint hearted. The contestants swim and trail run and race their kayaks and mountain bikes in an extremely challenging course. First, competitors swim around the Lorne Pier and then across crystal clear Loutit Bay. Then it is a paddle along the cliffs and the beautiful beaches of the Great Ocean Road while surfing southern ocean swells. Back on land, the contestants dash across the giant rock-dressed foreshore before taking the course inland through rainforests and under massive tree ferns, and past spectacular waterfalls.

Finally they saddle up on the mountain bike to the top of the Otway Ranges before the descent to the beach for a short run in the sand to the finish line. This annual event in December has become extremely popular with thousands of contestants taking part. So come along and have some fun.
