The Pacific Toyota 10km Run starts on Wharf Street, Port Douglas, in front of the Crystalbrook Superyacht Marina. The course will take runners along Wharf Street before making a right turn into Macrossan Street, the home of some of the best restaurants, cafes and retail shops in Port Douglas. You will then run down to the Esplanade running alongside the beautiful Four Mile Beach. The course will take you through a few back streets before turning left onto Port Douglas Road. The main road into Port Douglas will be divided into three lanes to allow locals to access Port Douglas still and provide our runners with a safe route as they head from town.
After passing the sensational Sheraton Resort on your left, you will continue on Port Douglas Road before turning left into Barrier Street. You will follow this around, turn left into Four Mile Beach Park, and go down to the sand.
