⭐ What Makes This Park Special

Family Playground Fun βœ…

While Kingscliff Parkrun itself is focused on the 5km run, the flat, shaded paths and nearby beach access make it a great spot for families to enjoy some active fun together. Kids can join in the run or scoot along the shared paths, and afterwards, everyone can cool off with a splash in the ocean just steps from the finish line. The friendly community vibe and welcoming volunteers add to the family-friendly atmosphere, making it a top choice for an arvo out with the young ones.

Beautiful Views That'll Take Your Breath Away πŸŒ…

Kingscliff Parkrun is tucked behind coastal dunes and bushy trees, providing a lovely shaded run with glimpses of the beach nearby. Although the course itself doesn’t run right on the sand, the finish line is close to the beach entrance, making it easy to enjoy the sea breeze and even a post-run swim. The natural shelter from the trees keeps things cool on hot days, and the peaceful coastal setting adds a relaxing vibe to your fitness routine.

Easy Access & Amenities for a Smooth Arvo πŸš—

This parkrun is super easy to get to, with plenty of parking available for those driving in. The course starts near the Mantra resort, making it a breeze for holidaymakers to join in. Shared walking and bike paths mean you can bring your bike or pram along, and public toilets are available nearby. Plus, there’s a great selection of cafes and bakeries close by for a well-earned coffee or brekkie after your run. The friendly volunteers also help keep things running smoothly.
