Beerwah at Daybreak

Beerwah, Australia • 7 Dec 2025

Beerwah @ Daybreak is staged at the base of Mount Beerwah in the Glass House Mountains National Park on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast. The event offers three distances: 10km, half marathon, and marathon, with runners circling the base of the mountain as dawn breaks. The course is known for tough terrain and potentially unpredictable conditions, appealing to beginners through to elite competitors.

It uses reflective flagging and arrows for navigation and may change due to safety concerns. There is a no-cup policy at checkpoints, so participants must carry a drinking cup; mandatory gear includes a water bottle and, for the marathon, a headlamp. Spectators are welcome at the start/finish area.

An Aboriginal legend ties Beerwah to the pregnant mother of the range. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
