Myall Classic Paddling Ultramarathon is back!
The Myall Classic is a major ultramarathon event on the NSW paddling calendar. It is held on the Myall River at Tea Gardens each September on the last Saturday, taking both competitive and recreational paddlers up the Myall River and return.
There are a range of distances and starting times, intended to see all paddlers complete their chosen course by early afternoon.
Distances offered are 12km, 27km and 47km, the longer course being a perfect shakedown for the Clarence 100 and longer Ultramarathon events such as the Hawkesbury Canoe Classic held in late October.
Due to its protected nature, the Myall Classic is a safe, scenic though testing event in the largely unspoilt Great Lakes Marine Park. Conditions can vary considerably though the usual scenario presents paddlers with clear blue skies and warm weather. A light Easterly breeze is usually present in the early afternoon.
