Yarra Sunrise Running Tour

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.

We begin at Federation Square, Melbourne’s cultural hub, where your guide sets the scene for the city’s history, landmarks, and early morning energy.

At Birrarung Marr, we share the story of Melbourne’s beginnings and its connection to the Yarra River, from Indigenous heritage to modern transformation.

At the MCG, we dive into Melbourne’s legendary sporting history and its role as the city's beating heart for cricket, AFL, and major global events.

At the Shrine of Remembrance, we pause to reflect on Australia’s military history while taking in sweeping views of the city skyline.

Running along the Yarra River and Southbank, we explore Melbourne’s transformation from a riverside settlement to a vibrant hub of arts, dining, and culture.

We finish with a well-earned coffee at South Wharf, relaxing riverside as the city comes to life.
