Event overview

The Great Ocean Trail Ultra is an oceanside trail run along the Great Ocean Walk on Victoria’s Shipwreck Coast in Australia. The event on Saturday 25 October 2025 is a point-to-point trail race that follows the complete Great Ocean Walk, a route that usually takes bushwalkers four to five days to complete. The 2025 edition includes a change to finish logistics because of construction at the Twelve Apostles Visitor Information Centre: runners still pass the Twelve Apostles viewpoint and then return to the Princetown Recreation Reserve for the finish, where camping is available.

The organisers acknowledge the Eastern Maar People as the custodians of the lands and waters in the Great Ocean Walk region.
