The iconic Newcastle Hill to Harbour is a fun run welcoming runners, walkers and wheelchair participants. The main event features an approximately 12km point-to-point course along Newcastle’s stunning coastline, starting at Bar Beach and finishing in Carrington.
If you are looking for a shorter option, the 6km Halfa Hill to Harbour offers a great challenge, and the Hunter Valley Orthodontics 2K-4-FUN is perfect for kids, families and anyone keen to soak up the atmosphere and be part of the day.
Known as Newcastle’s big running event, Hill to Harbour is about more than just the run. In 2026, we are aiming to raise $100,000 for multiple charities while celebrating health, fitness and the incredible community spirit that makes our city shine.
If you’re chasing a fitness goal, raising funds for a cause close to your heart, or just looking for a great day out, we hope to see you at Hill to Harbour 2026! Enjoy Newcastle’s beaches, harbour views and famous finish line vibe as you take on this local favourite.
