ABOUT

MRtC Amazing Race Magalies - We call it amazing, but it’s also crazy, ludicrous, outrageous and adventurous. 12 tasks at 10 venues will ping pong you across the Magalies area in pursuit of the next challenge.

Look forward to staying dry on the raft, being crazy and striking a pose, putt-putt, making a fire with a flint, target shooting, assembling an Adirondack, complete an obstacle course with your vehicle blindfolded, dive or kayak your choice – choose wisely one has a penalty and more

In a race where every second and every step count, you’ll need more than brains and brawn on your side. Some teams are even going as far as to call in a favour with the big fella upstairs.

Relationships will be tested; decisions will be second guessed and a meltdown or two will be had. So, strap yourselves in and get ready for the race that has it all.

The race is an adrenaline rush like you’ve never experienced before, and the memories will last a lifetime.

Experience : Explore Magalies as you have never done before.
