The Anaconda Adventure Race is an off road, multi discipline event taking competitors on an adventure filled journey through some of the most spectacular parts of Lorne, Otway Ranges and Great Ocean Road.
Attracting upwards of 1500 competitors the event has grown to iconic status and is affectionately referred to as "The Anaconda!"
The event is not necessarily for the faint hearted and you'll certainly earn your sleep in the sun afterwards, but smiling faces of competitors' as they cross the finish line show it's all worthwhile!
The event involves a 1.9km ocean swim across the spectacular Loutit Bay. following it back in the water with an awesome13km paddle under the cliffs and rocky shoreline back to lorne and the main transition area back on the lorne foreshore .Then it's the scenic 11.2km run taking athletes along an awesome coasteering section beneath the Great Ocean Road and then into the rainforest from the spectacular Cumberland Beach. Onto bikes for a challenging 22km mountain bike ride up the hills to Benwerrin and then the fun filled descent back to the coast and the final 2.5km team run to the finish!
The race may be completed as an individual where you complete all legs one after the other or in a relay team of up to 4 mates where you do one leg each, joining up for the team run to finish!
Complete with adventure expo on the foreshore with information and sponsor stands, MC announcements calling people over the finish line and plenty of other activities and the event is a real spectacle and great to be involved with as either spectator or competitor.
Get a team together or get yourself into shape and come and join all the fun and challenges of the Anaconda Adventure Race at Lorne!
