The location and course
XTERRA Dunsborough is an event that will go straight to the memory bank as not only an awesome challenge, but also for the sheer beauty of the landscapes you race through.
Dunsborough on beautiful Geographe Bay, WA, is renowned for its stunning coastal trails, beautiful blue water and awe-inspiring scenery, and that’s why it’s the chosen spot for XTERRA’s return to Australia.
Dunsborough is a very popular holiday centre and offers a huge range of accommodation options, plenty of touristy things to do – ranging from award winning wineries to caves, surf beaches and bushland to explore – all within close reach of the vibrant event centre.
“The course is amazing – a great swim, rock hopping along the coast, able to pick up a bit of speed on the trail run on the way back and then the mountain bike course just speaks for itself – it’s a mountain bikers dream with heaps of single track and twists and turns. I was smiling the whole way!” Ben Allen, 3-time Long Course champion.
