Adrenaline seeking 4×4 adventurers were given the perfect opportunity to prove their precision driving skills on the 4×4 obstacle and demo course, including the specially designed four-hour trail.
Runners took to the 10km trail run supervised by the South Coast Striders while families tried out the 4km fun family trail hike, supervised by South Coast Hospice.

Off-road bikers got to enjoy the thrills and spills of a 22km off-road motorcycle trail, which was in support of Stuart Gregory’s ‘Nuts4Dakar’ campaign.
The park will be developed in stages, with plans in place for a clubhouse, restaurant, tourism information centre, traders’ market and administrative offices.
