NANGA CHALLENGE 2023
Event Location: CHUDITCH campsite, Lane Poole Reserve, Dwellingup. All transition areas will be at CHUDITCH campsite this year. CHUDITCH is located directly OPPOSITE Island Pool rapid on the SOUTH side of river, and is accessed by crossing single lane bridge on Nanga Road, NOT GOING THRU ranger station at park entry, (as Bob’s Crossing will likely still be closed after high water levels), and follow signs from the Nanga Brook / Mill areas.
Disciplines: River paddling in moving water including a couple of small rapids, mountain biking and a cross-country run.
Course Options: There are THREE course options for 2021. There is the “Nice” which is a 8k paddle, 15k ride and 10k run and there is the “Nasty” which is a mean 12k paddle, 23k ride and 13k run. The “Nasty” course will test competitors for between 4 and 5 hours. There is a NO PADDLE option, a DUATHLON comprising a 23km MTB and a 13km cross-country run. There is also a NO RUN option, a DUATHLON comprising AN 8KM Paddle and a 23km MTB. For the first time we are offering an ADVENTURE PAIRS category.
