Mountain Designs Hells Bells headed to Caloundra August 2024!
Caloundra, located at the southern end of the Sunshine Coast, has been announced as the official start and finish location for the 2024 edition of the Mountain Designs Hells Bells 24hr Adventure Race.
Over 400 people including competitors, family and friends from around Australia and the Asia Pacific Region will attend the Mountain Designs Hells Bells 24hr Adventure Race from 3 - 4 August 2024.
The race is held annually on the first weekend in August on the Sunshine Coast. The location of the course is moved each year to a different area to pose exciting new challenges for competitors.
This year’s location of choice, Caloundra, is a 35min drive from the Sunshine Coast Airport and just 70 minutes north of Brisbane.
Located just north of Brisbane on the southern end of the Sunshine Coast, Caloundra is known, for it's family-friendly atmosphere, easy access to Bribie Island and Pumicestone Passage, pristine beaches and stunning sunsets over the Glasshouse Mountains.
Chris Dixon, Wild & Co event director says, “We’re very excited to be heading back to Caloundra, it's the perfect location to start and finish an Adventure Race. It gives us access to some of the best trails and waterways the Sunshine Coast has to offer.
We've got an exciting new course for Hells Bells 2024 and can't wait to show off trails Hells Bells has never been to before and to re-visit some of our favourites.”
Mountain Designs Hells Bells involves 24hrs of non-stop endurance racing in the major adventure racing disciplines of trekking, mountain biking and kayaking. Mixed gender, Male and Female teams of two or four must navigate their way through an arduous 120+km course that is only revealed to them the day of the race.
"Fairy Bells" runs simultaneously with Mountain Designs Hells Bells. The Fairy Bells covers just over half the distance but teams have the full 24hrs to complete it. The legs will be challenging but with the additional time available to complete the half course, teams have a greater chance to reach the finish line before time is up.
The window for registration closes 1 August 2024. For the some really great local deals on accomodation in Caloundra click through to Booking.com
