Raffertys Coastal Run
Saturday 4th February, 2023
Lake Macquarie, NSW

The Raffertys Coastal Run trail winds through the Wallarah National Park, taking runners on a journey from calm lake shore to rugged coast line. Runners will pass through varied terrain from bushland single track to ridgetop fire trail, coastal heath section, rock platforms and sandy beaches.

The area’s coastline is dotted with remnants of the past, runners will experience the cultural and natural history of the area as they run under the pier at Catherine Hill Bay, a long since abandoned timber jetty jutting an imposing 240m out to sea. Lake Macquarie has all the elements of a top trail run destination with views that will get you through kilometre after kilometre.

Raffertys Resort and Lake Macquarie City Council are proud supporters of Raffertys Coastal Run. Together we are incredibly excited to deliver this long awaited event. We encourage you to sign up now as entries are selling fast and likely to sell out soon.

Whether you are up for the 12km, 22km or 36km, why not make your way to Lake Macquarie for February 4th 2023 and find out what makes this race so special!
