Follow event Follow series Run/Walk Road/Path/Park

Bamaga, Australia’s northern most settlement, is the start line for the Northern Edition of The Compass Club.

The next event date is to be confirmed.

The Compass Club is a series which gives you the chance to complete a full marathon on each of Australia's northern, southern, eastern, western and central compass points.

Commencing at dawn on the outskirts of the quiet little town, a traditional Welcome to Country ceremony will herald the start of the race. Competitors will follow the current 4WD track all the way to the rocky outcrop, and race back to Bamaga before the North Queensland humidity really kicks in.

There is also a 7km Fun Run, held on the same day.
