Mollymook, NSW — Wild&Co is proud to announce the seventh edition of Terra Nova 24, returning in 2026 with a brand-new race location at Narrawallee Beach and a strong national field ready to take on one of Australia’s most scenic 24-hour adventure races.
Inspired by the idea that “courage is grace under pressure”, Terra Nova continues to challenge teams not just physically, but through decision making, adaptability and teamwork. Over 24 hours, racers will navigate moments where the pressure is real — when weather, terrain, fatigue or navigation push teams to their limits — and where staying composed and moving forward becomes the true test of endurance.
This year’s course explores new terrain on the NSW South Coast, with Narrawallee and Mollymook offering the backdrop for a race built around discovery and flow. Teams can expect a true mix of adventure racing elements — gravel riding, technical navigation and strategic route choice — along with a late-stage bike leg featuring a saltwater crossing.
Set within one of the most beautiful coastal regions in the country, the area combines sweeping beaches, native bushland and relaxed seaside charm with excellent accommodation and dining options, making it an ideal host for a race weekend.
The 2026 edition will welcome 74 teams and over 250 competitors from across Australia. While many familiar names return to the start line, a strong contingent of new teams highlights the continued growth of the Terra Nova community.
Beyond the competitive field, Terra Nova 24 remains designed for all levels of adventure racers — from elite teams chasing performance to weekend warriors and first-timers stepping up to the 24-hour format.
