Six Foot Track Marathon

The Six Foot Track is a 45km trail stretching across the Blue Mountains from the Explorer's Marked Tree, near Katoomba, to the Jenolan Caves.

The marathon started in 1984 and follows the length of the entire trail.

The race is a not for profit event and all profits are donated to the Blue Mountains Rural Fire Service who provide volunteer firefighters at the aid stations on race day.

Each year the event has over 1,100 entrants completing the course on race day.

The Six Foot Track Marathon does not operate a wait list and entries are not able to be sold or transferred as per race rules.

Forest Fundamentals sessions introduce you to key off-track navigation skills. The sessions are hands-on as we focus on map and contour interpretation as well as skills for cross-country navigation and orienteering. Compass use is introduced as well as tools to help you navigate where you want to go. Our team of experienced and friendly coaches are ready to help you progress your navigation skills.

These sessions are perfect for orienteers wishing to progress to bush events or to improve skills for moderate level orienteering. Skills are also transferable to adventure racing, bushwalking and rogaining. We welcome all ages and experience levels but generally recommend a minimum age of 12 years for these sessions.

For this session, meet at Picnic Table 1 in the Manly Dam Reserve. The Reserve can be accessed via King St, Manly Vale. The picnic table is the closest one to the entry gate. There's paid parking inside the Reserve or park outside and walk in. The picnic table is sheltered and the training session will be on even if showers are forecast.

What to bring: We recommend long pants for starting to get off-track, enclosed and comfortable shoes for walking, a hat, water and snack plus a compass (if you have one). We will also have loan compasses available.

As usual with our events, due to landowner concerns, this is a no dog event. No smoking too.
