Australia 路 Road marathon 路 42.195 km
Cadbury Marathon
Claremont, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia
The Cadbury Marathon starts on Cadbury Road in Claremont, Hobart, and finishes at the chocolate factory. The published road route passes through the Cadbury estate and the MONA area, crossing Bowen Bridge before the return climb. A chocolate factory is a persuasive finish-line landmark, though it does little for the gradient. The 2027 route remains provisional; use the final event booklet for pacing plans. Enter the in-person marathon through Race Roster and allow for the published six-hour limit.
