The Wild&Co Explore Adventure Race returns to Canberra this weekend, with teams set to take on a day of navigation, trekking and mountain biking around Lake Tuggeranong.

Race HQ will be located at Mundang Beach, providing an ideal base for the event with open parklands, lakeside access and excellent trail networks surrounding the course. The area offers a unique mix of urban convenience and natural terrain — just minutes from the city, yet feeling a world away once teams are out on course.

Competitors can expect classic Explore racing: working together as a team, navigating through checkpoints, and choosing how hard to push throughout the day. Whether it’s a first-time adventure race or another step along a longer journey, Explore events are designed to be achievable, engaging and fun.

Explore Canberra Bike Drop

You will need to drop your mountain bikes at a point on the course prior to the race. Make sure you allow yourself time to do this. It is approximately 5kms and 5mins drive from this location to race HQ and you need to have done this before race registration and briefing.

The bike drop will be open to receive bikes between 0630 – 0830 ONLY. You must drop your bikes between these times. Not earlier, not later.

The area is quite small so please be patient and follow the instructions from event officials.
