Surf Coast Trail Marathon 2017 is a trail running event offering participants marathon and half marathon runs along the stunning Surf Coast Walk from Torquay to Fairhaven on Victoria’s famed Surf Coast, an hour south west of Melbourne.

In many ways, this is the perfect event for all runners eyeing the two quintessential distances. For road runners it offers a first taste for trail, without being intimidating as a relatively non-technical, non-remote, non-mountainous trail. For experienced trailites, the route still features stunning wilderness with coastal viewpoints you won’t believe (and becomes a truly go-fast course with plenty of good twists and turns).
