About the Event

THE TRACK Australia takes place in the Northern Territory, between the town of Alice Springs and Uluru. The Australian Outback provides unforgettable scenes. Its wide spaces evoke adventure and freedom. The first half of the race takes place within the West MacDonnell National Park. Then the route will continue south, towards the Finke Gorge National Park. For the second half of the race, runners will go down in direction of the Uluru / Kata Tjuta National Park, registered on the UNESCO World Heritage List. They will then be in Aboriginal territory, in the community of Anangu. The finish line will be near Uluru, true emblem of Australia. Uluru is the largest monolith in the world, rising to 348 meters in the middle of the desert. THE TRACK will allow you to feel like a pioneer discovering the Australian Outback authenticity.

About Alice Springs

Scenic view of

Alice Springs, sometimes colloquially known as Alice, is the heart of Central Australia and consists of cavernous gorges, boundless desert landscapes, remote Aboriginal communities and a charming pioneering history. It embodies the hardy outback of the Northern Territory's Red Centre, and is a travel hub for sights and hikes in the region, such as Uluru, Kata Tjuta and Kings Canyon. Since the start of the tourist boom in the early 1980s, the population has substantially grown to over 25,000. It is a great town and well worth a visit.
