The Blackall100 is a qualifying event for the WSER

(Western States Endurance Run).

SUNSHINE COAST OFFICIAL DESTINATION PARTNERS

This magnificent trail running ultra takes you across the Blackall Range on the Sunshine Coast hinterland, experiencing vibrant ferny forests, subtropical rainforest, tall eucalypt trees, picturesque waterfalls and quiet hinterland hamlets. With strong ties to the local Indigenous tribe, this unbeatable event is loved as much for its tough terrain as its traditions. Make this the year YOU ring the iconic Blackall Bell as you cross the finish line.

Interesting fact: The Blackall Range was a gathering place for Indigenous people for thousands of years. Find out more about their Bunya Feasts of dance, song and food.
