Kangaroo Island Marathon

Sporting Events

23 Aug 2026 Annual Event

Since 2015 the Kangaroo Island Marathon has offered runners the opportunity to take on a course that carves its way through the heart of a shutdown Flinders Chase National Park.

Runners will be inspired by post-bushfire regenerating flora and fauna, undulating roads and trails, an exposed coastal section with views to the powerful Southern Ocean and a boardwalk leading to the iconic Remarkable Rocks. The race format encourages a spirit of camaraderie amongst runners as they pass by each other throughout the day.

Following a record field in 2025 under new ownership by Marathon Tours & Travel (MTT) this year’s event will be another step above again! Be sure to register and secure your place on the start line.

For a seamless travel experience, MTT also offer dedicated travel packages available for spectators and runners.
