The course starts at the Romaine Reserve carpark adjacent to the BBQ area. Runners follow the reserves gravel pathway in an anticlockwise direction until they reach the start of the Mount Street link path. Here runners turn right onto the link path and continue for another 400m. The course then turns left onto the fence line track, heading back into the reserve for approx. 700m until the Havenview link path. Here runners will take a right on to the havenview link path and head towards the truck route before taking another right to run adjacent to the truck route for some 500m before taking another right to head back to the fence line and onto the forestry fire track on the opposite side of the fence. The course follows the fire track southwest for approx. 600m, before taking a left towards the truck route. As runners approach the truck route, they will then turn right at the T intersection. Here runners will complete a 300m out and back section around a turn marker, before continuing along the fire track adjacent to the truck route. Approx 1km down the track the course will perform a large “U” between the truck route and the reserve fence line tracks. Runners then continue another 1km along the truck route track, crossing over the Havenview link track, before following the track left towards the reserve. The course then turns left back onto the reserve gravel pathway, before turning right over the footbridge and finishing where the course started. 

• Parking is limited in the Romaine carpark.  Therefore, all competitors that are able, are requested to park in Blackwood Parade or Kingsley Avenue.  This is to ensure access to the park area for other users and club members who are travelling with people who have mobility issues and/or small children. 

• It is recommended that participants wear trail running shoes due to slippery conditions caused by recent rainfall. 

• Runners must keep RIGHT at all times and be mindful of other runners coming towards them. 

• There are sections of exposed roots, rocks, fallen branches, leaves and blackberry vines throughout the course. Runners must run with their eyes as well as their feet. 

• Please note that the course is marked with pink spray-painted arrows. 

• Due to fallen trees blocking a small section of the usual race course, there is a slight deviation from previous years. These changes have been included in the race map and written course description above.

NOTE: This is an OUT-AND-BACK course. The course is a completely new course for 2026 due to Panatana Bridge works. The new course consists of a mix of road and pathway starting inside Panatana Park at the end of Port St, Port Sorell. Runners start and finish on the grass inside the park. 

From the start, runners will head North, exiting the park on to River Esplanade and around the corner and continue along Archer St running on the RHS of the road, crossing Port St until reaching Darling St. The course turns right along Darling St, until Wilmot St. Turn right at Wilmot St and continue along Wilmot St. At the end of Wilmot St, head straight towards the gravel path (cones/arrows will guide you), then turn left. Run 100m on the gravel path and a marshall will guide runners across the Boat Ramp access road, then run on the footpath next to the Caravan Park. 

The course then keeps on the footpath for the rest of the way out and basically follows the normal Parkrun route, until reaching Shearwater Park. The turnaround sign at approximately 3.5km will be just past the creek bridge, before returning along the same route. On the way back, when exiting the gravel pathway on to Wilmot St, runners should keep to the LHS of the road. Keep on the LHS of the road for Wilmot St, Darling St and Archer St before continuing to the finish.
