Echuca Racing Track

Echuca Racecourse is located around a three-hour drive north of Melbourne, set near the pastoral lands of the iconic Murray River and surrounded by Victorian bushland.

The track has a circumference of 1,811m and maintains a width of about 18m for most of the circuit, before widening significantly to 33m along the 350m home straight. This generous layout allows runners plenty of room to find position before reaching any turns, regardless of the race distance.

Each year the racecourse comes to life over the Labour Day weekend in March with the two-day Echuca Cup Carnival, the standout event among the venue’s 11 annual race meetings. The carnival attracts racegoers from across the region, all drawn by the welcoming and relaxed atmosphere that Echuca is known for.
