NSW · NIGHTCAP NATIONAL PARK · BYRON RAINFOREST RUN
13km
Saturday 27 June 2026
The course broadly follows a figure 8 pattern with a challenging but enjoyable undulating start. This middle distance course then slips onto single track over waterways and through riparian rainforest, steadily spiralling up and around the side of Peates Mountain. With scenic views along the ridgeline giving an idea of what lies further up into the Park, it's a full tilt rollercoaster back down to join the main fire trail, with some diversions onto flowing single tracks then along the Repentance Creek to the spectacular Minyon Falls.
