Check out our Big Easy course profiles for both the Marathon and Mountain Bike
Make sure your breakes are well maintained for this one!
If you are considering atempting this as your first Mt. Marathon because it looks relatively easy with all the down-hill please remember to take it VERY easy on the steeper down-hill bits (about 5ks of the course) this will make completing the distance more comfortable. If you’re well experienced and fast down-hill sections don’t bugger-you-up too much then we’ll leave it to your own judgement. But be aware – experienced trail/mountain runners found this course quite a bit harder than expected last year.
The BIG EASY – a cross country trail with ‘a whole lotta downhill!’

Just a couple of months until the BIG EASY once again. This unique course starts up at the Snow Farm at an elevation of 1500m above sea level. After a brief down-hill you then ride about 14km up to 1900m above sea level. Then you get one of the longest down-hills anywhere in the country – a total drop of over 1600m spread-out over about 22km. With all that adrenalin you hit the flat and ‘power’ home the last 12km (undulating) to the Albert Town Tavern.
