MIRABELLA MOUNTAIN FUN RUN

Our sensational fun run is a bitumen course, either 21.5km or 10km long and just over 1,270 metres in elevation.  The course starts 21.5km (or 10km) down from the top of Mt Buller (clock tower) and runners will run up Mt Buller Road all the way to the top finishing in the Mt Buller Square. The road is closed completely and the atmosphere is breathtaking.... you-running/or walking-mountains.... it doesn't get more peaceful & liberating!  Our race is physically challenging and scenically stunning.  Proceeds will go to Autism Victoria (AMAZE).

7 PEAKS DOMESTIQUE

Victoria's 7 Peaks Alpine Ascent Challenge is an at-your-own pace cycling challenge which takes you up winding mountain roads, around steep turns and past spectacular views right to the top of 7 of Victoria's Alpine Resorts.

The climb up Mt Buller is among the most picturesque in the state. Rising from the small township of Mirimbah, the ascent of Mt Buller is fairly steady throughout but with a final few kilometres that are very steep and pose a great challenge for cyclists of all abilities. The steepest section is Hell Corner at 14.9km - a left-hand bend with a gradient of ~13%.
