This year’s race will be longer, tougher and even more challenging as teams vie for the $250,000 prize. Teams will travel more than 65,000 kilometres across 4 continents. The route includes a mix of iconic sites and some very surprising destinations never before seen on any version of the Race. 　　A truly diverse group of Aussie racers will circumnavigate the globe, unsure of what challenges lie ahead. The race will be fast-paced, unrelenting, and test their stamina and personal relationships. 　　This year The Amazing Race Australia features several Race firsts – including Must Vote U-Turns and a controversial new Salvage Pass that promises to shake up the first leg of the Race.
