The Amazing Race – Season 5

The teams take on new heights when they touch down in Townsville, where one team mate must conquer all fears and abseil down a 100 metre cliff face to capture the clue.

Seeking help from the locals for an iconic outback challenge - the dunny derby, their newfound friends must take their place on the 'throne' for a race across town.

Working alongside our Aussie lifeguards in red and yellow, the teams take on some of the toughest surf conditions and complete a rigorous series of challenges to receive their next clue.

The Amazing Race Australia is about to set off! 14 teams will criss-cross the nation taking part in heart-stopping and stomach-churning challenges, all with their eyes on the $250,000 prize
