You can tackle the full 231km Non-Stop Sonder Monster. 128km Ellery Monster, the 65km Standley Monster or a casual 25km of delightful single track in the Simpsons Monster.

Staggered starts for all events exist over 3 days of non-stop, continuous racing where all competitors finish on the Sunday, in a festival at the Alice Springs Telegraph Station.

Experience an incredible connection to country as you absorb the extraordinary vistas in the amazing West MacDonnell National Park.
