Choose your stages. Race your race.
You don’t have to take on the whole Freycinet Challenge to be part of it.
Choose the stages you want to race — one, two, three or more — and create your own multi-sport challenge across the spectacular Freycinet Peninsula.
You’ll race alongside the solo and team competitors, with every stage timed individually. Your results will be ranked against everyone racing that stage.
How fast can you go?
Build your challenge
With eight stages across four disciplines, you can pick the events that suit you:
- Trail Running — Stages 1 & 8
- Kayaking — Stages 2 & 5
- Road Cycling — Stages 3 & 6
- Mountain Biking — Stages 4 & 7
Race a single stage, combine several, or string together a full day of racing. It’s entirely up to you.
Race for the fastest time
Single Stage Racing is a straight-up test of speed.
Every stage is timed separately, with the fastest female and male athlete on each course taking the honours.
There are no age categories. Just you, the course and the clock.
And because you’ll be racing alongside athletes competing in the full Challenge, there’s no shortage of competition.
How it works
When you enter, choose the stages you want to race.
Race officials will give you a start time for each stage. If you’ve entered consecutive stages, simply keep moving through the transition zone between them — refuel, change gear and get ready for the next one.
If you’ve chosen stages at different times, you can relax between races and prepare for your next start.
Your timing chip records your time from the start line to the finish line of each stage, with your results recorded and ranked separately.
Why race single stages?
Maybe you’re a specialist who wants to test yourself against the best.
Maybe you want to experience the Freycinet Challenge without committing to the full race.
Or maybe you simply want to pick your favourite disciplines and see how fast you can go.
Whatever your reason, this is your challenge. Ready to build your race?
