The Discovery Eco-Challenge is a race of endurance and skill. Over 200 athletes from 16 countries will go full-tilt through the backcountry of Australia in this non-stop, non-motorized, unassisted test of sheer grit and brawn.

The Mountain Zone will bring you daily coverage of all the war-stories, fish-tales, photos and multi-media from the wild outback, white-water rivers, and vast beaches of Australia. [Click here to begin the adventure.]


The 1997 Eco-Challenge is sponsored by the Discovery Channel
who will be broadcasting a five-part TV mini-series next spring.
