If you are in search of warm water, waterfalls, white sandy beaches, white water rapids and a classic Queensland Pub, Red Bull Defiance has it all. You better be up for a bloody tough Aussie adventure.

This event in Mission Beach will be the first time the Red Bull Defiance event has been held in Australia and there could not be a better place for a world class adventure race in this country than in the Cassowary Coast as the area is very well known as an adventure centre in Far North Queensland.
The local Mission Beach Photography group is running a photo comp for the best photo of the event over the three days on any stage of the event, this will be a great chance to show off the Cassowary Coast area and the event to the world. More details can be found by following this link.
