Get out to Long Bay trails anytime between Thursday, 09 Feb and Sunday 12 Feb either solo, or with some mates, and complete the following:
Long Bay Beginner Loop - 6km
- Head to the right, start off by running up the beach for a little over 1km.
- When the beach ends, turn left into the bush. You'll hit the road, turn right, and then right again at the next intersection onto the Coastal Track.
- At the intersection with Acre track, stay right / continue straight
- The second time you intersect with Acre track, take a left onto it and start your loop back.
- Acre track loops back around, you'll find yourself at the first intersection again. Take the inner "Alternative Coastal Track".
- When the Alt Coastal Track dead ends, take a right and head back to the beginning / parking lot.
Long Bay Intermediate Option - 11.6kms
- Instead of turning onto Acre track, continue straight. Take the Coastal Track all the way to its end, then turn around and head back. You'll be making a right when you hit the intersection with Acre track again. Then continue as directed above.
