Hells Bells 24 Hour Adventure Race

Hells Bells 24 Hour Adventure Race

Donnybrook, Sunshine Coast, QLD

Follow event Off Road/Trail Multisport Team

Hells Bells is a non-stop 24 Hour Adventure Race from 7 to 8 August 2027 involving the disciplines of trekking, mountain biking and kayaking.

The 2027 event is based in Donnybrook, on the Sunshine Coast.

Teams of 2 or 4 must navigate their way unsupported through an arduous 120km+ course that is only revealed to them hours before the race. You and your teammates stay together for the whole race – it is not a relay.

The Fairy Bells adventure race covers about half the distance as the full event, but teams have the full 24 Hours to complete it. This race is designed as a stepping stone to Hells Bells and longer races and is perfect for teams doing their first adventure race.

Each year a new and exciting course is developed. Courses are normally linear with teams often transported to the start line and finishing back at race HQ.
