What Makes It Great

The Alpine Challenge 100km covers approximately 101km through the Victorian Alps, starting alongside the 100 Mile field at Falls Creek at 4:30am. Following a circuit through the high country past multiple alpine peaks, exposed ridgelines, and river crossings, the 100km shares much of the character of the longer event in a single-day format. A qualifying standard of at least one 50km trail ultra or 8-hour rogaine is required.
