About
The Qld Rogaine Association invites you to our annual 8hr Rogaine event.
Our 8 hour event is very popular with beginner rogainers, and is suitable for people of all ages and abilities. Celebrate the start of winter with an energetic day out with friends or family while sharpening up your navigation and route planning skills. A hearty meal at the end of the event is included in your entry fee.
Teams of 2-5 people navigate on foot between checkpoints within an 8 hour period with the aim to score as many points as possible in the allocated time. Organise your team and come along for a day of fun.
Remember, the rogaine format allows for all ages and abilities, from novice to elite, and you can stay out in course as long or as little as you want (from 1 to 8 hours).
Although there is a lot of lantana on the course due to recent wet seasons, your kind course setters have made sure that you’ll be able to find a lucky way around most of it! It is a very scenic course with great views from the slopes above the valley.
The start / finish is the Casuarina Day Use area at Glen Rock State Forest, south of Gatton. Camping is not included in your entry fee, but camping is available by making your own booking through the QPWS booking system. It is a very nice camping area so please do take advantage of the opportunity to camp out overnight.
