2013 Australian Marathon Championships
Atherton, QLD
Course descriptions
The Atherton Marathon course will give riders a taste of an up and coming mountain bike region, home to a wealth of mountain bike trails.
The 29km course involves approximately 18km of singletrack, including the freshly completed 'Trail Six', a fast flowing World Trail creation sure to get riders smiling.
The 21km of fire trail includes a 15km stretch around the back of the mountain bike park area, through the rainforest iconic to this part of Australia.
With 1100 metres of climbing per lap the course will challenge riders, though the rainforest scenery and flowing singletrack will provide ample reward for riders efforts.
A one (30km), two (60km) or three (90km) lap racing formal will be offered, which includes a short start section to feed riders into the course proper.
The Atherton course embodies the true marathon mountain bike experience, while at the same time sharing the iconic rainforest with riders, this is an event not to be missed.
