Join us at Gumbuya World for an action-packed 10 km, 5 km, or 2 km Family Dash! You’ll race along picturesque closed roads through the scenic Victorian countryside, before finishing inside Victoria’s wildest theme park. It’s a one-of-a-kind experience where the adventure doesn’t stop when you cross the finish line.
All race entries include full-day access to everything Gumbuya World has to offer—think water slides, roller coasters, wildlife, and live entertainment all in one incredible location. Better still, runners will enjoy exclusive early access before the park opens to the public, meaning more time for rides and zero time spent in queues.
One moment you’ll be catching your breath at the finish line, the next you’ll be reaching speeds of 70 kilometres per hour on a roller coaster, handfeeding penguins, or plunging down a giant water slide. It’s the ultimate way to reward your efforts with a full day of non-stop fun.
Whether you’re chasing a PB or just a good time, this is an unforgettable race day the whole family will love.
