Guide

We are eager to expand our Trail Running Directory in Australia. For a limited time, if you submit any trail in Australia and we publish it, we'll double the credit you receive! Submit a new trail now.

Head east along the main track, continuing uphill past the Hackett Houses Track on your left and the powerlines overhead. After 920 metres, nearing the top of the rise, turn left onto a single track, then turn left again onto another single track heading into the bush. Continue, following your GPX for the twists and turns, until you find yourself onto the Centenary Trail heading uphill.

Start to climb, heading up a couple of long zig-zags, then turn left at about 4.5 km (don't climb all the way up to the top of Majura) and traverse, then head downhill. Take a left at about 5.5 km and follow the trails around the base of the mountain until you meet the track you started out on. A quick downhill takes you back to the start.

If you know of any public toilets near the trail start or on the route, please login and then let us know so we can update this section.
