What Makes It Great

A point-to-point run on the Bibbulmun Track from Lowlands Beach to the Southern Terminus in Albany. Big dune climbs and soft sand make it harder than the distance suggests, and slower runners may finish by head torch. An official shuttle takes runners from the Albany finish to the start.
