Whether you’re an elite sportsman or recreational kayaker, this challenge represents a chance to get out on the water and experience the open water conditions on the Gippsland Lakes, Australia’s largest inland water way. View the spectacular man made entrance on the 90 Mile Beach that allows the lakes to run into Bass Strait. Elite paddlers start at Paynesville and recreational paddlers start at Metung, with everyone finishing at the Iconic Lakes Entrance Footbridge.
