Nepean River parkrun

It’s a five-kilometre run – you against the clock! A great way to see the Nepean River and get some exercise.

Parkrun is a free, weekly five-kilometre timed run for runners and walkers of all ages and abilities, held in locations across the world. For your timed result to be recorded, register once for free and bring a copy of your unique barcode with you when you turn up to park run.

Parkrun is not a race, but a relaxed, friendly activity – run with your pram, run with your dog, run with friends, run to beat your last run! Parkrun is sweeping Australia, and the Parkrun community is very social – participants are all invited to catch up after the run for a coffee.

The course is run on a mixture of concrete paths, bitumen paths and grass. Some sections of the course may accumulate mud, leaves and puddles after rain. Depending on availability, marshals will be at key sections of the course, or signs will be in place.

Occurs every Saturday rain hail or shine. Check the Nepean River parkrun Facebook page for updates. There are two other park runs nearby – Werrington Lakes and Penrith Lakes.
