Looking for something to do next weekend? Get Adventurous ...
On the weekend of October 23, 24 and 25, Lakes Entrance is hosting the Australian Adventure Festival, where the worlds of Adventure Sport meet in one ultimate Festival.
An adventure is an exciting or unusual experience. It’s an activity which is bold. It involves the exploration of rugged terrain, wild landscapes and exciting unknowns – it makes us feel alive, and it is awesome.
The aim of the festival is simply to bring together outdoor adventurers, and their friends and families, to celebrate the world of adventure in one ultimate festival. And, to do so in a naturally magic, untouched, adventure playground.
55km and Half Marathon Trail Running challenges available.
The Mitchell River National Park features everything from open forest, a vast range of flora and fauna, to remote river gorges. Witness jaw dropping river scenery, serene rainforest gullies, rugged landscapes, and some of Victoria’s more unusual vegetation communities in this extraordinary National Park.
100km and 50km MTB challenges available.
Picture yourself taking on a mix of flowing single track, up-hill challenges and quick downhill runs through the Colquhoun State Forest. You can get the kids involved too with the Kids Mountain Bike event.
One Day Challenge Adventure Race.
Take on an ultimate adventure challenge. The one day non-navigational challenge – 34km Mountain Bike, 12km Paddle,16km Trail Run. Compete as an Individual or in a relay-style team of 2 or 3.
