Running Events > NSW > Newcastle > Raffertys Coastal Run

The Raffertys Coastal Run trail snakes through the Lake Macquarie Wallarah National Park taking runners on a journey from calm lake shore to rugged coast line. Lake Macquarie is a natural adventure playground; the stunning lake and wild coastlines are iconic of the east coast of Australia. Runners pass through varied terrain from bushland single track to ridgetop fire trail, heathy coastal track, rock platforms and sandy beaches; all the elements of a top trail run destination with views that will get you through the kilometers.

Runners will experience the cultural and natural history of the area as they traverse spectacular clifftop tracks and race through the forests of Munmorah State Conservation Area before descending into historic mining town of Catherine Hill Bay and under the long abandoned timber coal-loading jetty.
It’s a tough but rewarding course; with the stunning lake and wild coastline as its backdrop it’s not hard to understand why it’s a favourite in the trail running race calendar!
