The Goolwa to Meningie Race is on again Saturday 17th of November 2012, it's a 63km as the crow flies adventure race winding through the lower lakes and reaches of the River Murray in South Australia, this entire course was dry 2 years ago due to the drought with a bund put across the river to hold water at Goolwa now it has 640 square km of water in the 2 lakes. The race starts at Goolwa down the Goolwa channel across Lake Alexandrina through the creek called the Narrows, then across Lake Albert to Meningie. It might take you 3hrs or 8hrs to complete. If you want an idea of the race heres a link to my summary from last year.
