Yarra Sunrise Running Tour
Overview
Experience the serenity of Melbourne at dawn with our Yarra Sunrise Running Tour. This 8km (5-mile) run begins at 7:00 am from Federation Square and takes you through tranquil parklands and iconic landmarks as the city wakes up. We begin by running along Birrarung Marr to the Melbourne Cricket Ground, soaking in stories from the city's sporting heart. Crossing the river, we tackle the Anderson Street hill on the Tan Track, a favourite among local runners. A peaceful stop at the Shrine of Remembrance offers panoramic views and time for reflection. The run concludes along the Yarra River, finishing at a riverside café for a well-earned coffee and the calm of early morning. With a relaxed pace and friendly guides, this tour suits all levels and offers a unique way to connect with Melbourne’s beauty, history, and culture before the day begins.
