Down Under 135

Lerderderg, Australia • 16-18 May 2025

Down Under 135 is a challenging ultra-endurance foot race held in Victoria, Australia, covering a grueling distance of 135 miles (220 km) through the scenic Lerderderg State Forest. Known for its demanding nature, the race offers participants a chance to truly test their limits, with a significant elevation gain of over 6,500 meters. The event is designed for serious athletes who appreciate the challenge rather than focusing solely on finishing. In 2025, the race will return to its original start and finish point at Mackenzie's Flat Picnic Area, Darley, after a course reversal in 2024.
