30th Lake Macquarie

At this stage start times will be staggered, with starts between 8:30am and 10:00am. This may change, we are looking for a venue to facilitiate a mass start. Entries will be opened as soon as this is resolved. 

This date was scheduled to be a “Surprise Event”. The usual Lake Macquarie rogaine and the Surprise Event both had to be cancelled due to the risk of landslips in the Watagans. The industrious Newcastle team have developed this event to ensure that you all get your Lake Macquarie fix this year.

With the cancellation of the last two years – due to either covid or landslides, this is the long awaited 30th anniversary of the Lake Macquarie Rogaine. What better way to celebrate it than a meander around the Lake itself!

Ranging from the coast to the Lake, competitors will experience a range of habitat zones. From coastal beach, swamp forests to open eucalpytus and grassland ridges and even some remnant Watagan rainforest biota can be found.

For all the twitchers out there – there are birds birds and more birds.

This is a family friendly event, with shops, parks and cycleways.
