1 = Diega and Wolfgang were eliminated on the spot by host Cano Mora, in Gabalfa, as Chelsie and Rona had already checked in at the pit stop nearly three hours before.
- Red means the team was eliminated.
- Blue means the team was the last to arrive at a pit stop in a non-elimination leg of the race and was thus "marked for elimination," meaning that if that team did not place first on the next leg, they would receive a 30 minute penalty.
- Green means the team won the Fast Forward clue.
- A yellow > means that team chose to use the Yield; < indicates the team who received it; <> indicates a leg where the Yield was available but not used.
Race locations
Leg 1: Pacitalia → Bettia
- Timiocato, Capitale, Pacitalia (Piazza dei Santi) - starting line
- Timiocato (Timiocato Santo Ragazzo International Airport) to Gabalfa, Bettia (Gabalfa International Airport)
- Gabalfa to Upper Sweeney by train - (Rainforest Interpretive Centre)
- Upper Sweeney - Guide or Slide
- Upper Sweeney - Fish Toss
- Upper Sweeney - Hotel East Bettia
The first detour was a choice between using orienteering to find clues stapled to trees, and rolling of logs down tracks using traditional tools. The roadblock involved tossing fish into a bucket from a measured distance.
Leg 2: Bettia → Nedalia → Spruitland
- Upper Sweeney, Banastra, Bettia to southwestern U Gwlad Teg, Bettia-Nedalia (Bren-Brooks International Wildlife Park)
- Bren-Brooks International Wildlife Park - Spot or Trot
- Bren-Brooks International Wildlife Park - Bren-Brooks Airfield, Nedalia, to Kafra International Airport, Kafra, Nedalia
- Kafra - Roach Run
- Kafra International Airport, Kafra, Nedalia, to New Brux International Airport, New Brux, Spruitland
- New Brux - New Brux International Airport, Hotel and Conference Centre
The detour on this leg was a choice between a birdwatching activity, which involved the use of binoculars to correct identify local bird species on a laminated sheet, and a physical exertion task which involved a relay run between two stakes in the ground while carrying a backpack laden with 25kg lead weights. The roadblock involved consuming ten curried cockroaches covered in a spicy cream sauce, a Nedalian delicacy.
Trivia
General
- The route markers in The Amazing Race 1 were striped red and yellow.
In-race
- On Leg 1, there was nearly six and a half hours time between the first-place team and the last-place team, eight hours if including Diega and Wolfgang, who were eliminated before even reaching the town of Upper Sweeney, and thus, the detour.
- On Leg 2, one of three flights from Bren-Brooks International Wildlife Park's airstrip to Kafra International Airport was redirected to Aanjar, Nedalia's second-largest city, as an unknown wildcard for teams. The second flight ended up being the indirect flight.
- On Leg 2, a Welsh-speaking shopkeeper misunderstood Andy and Matt's request for directions and mistakenly directed them 90km south to the M1 expressway, a tolled route whose booths did not open until eight that morning, leaving the Krytenian brothers to wait at the booth for the guard to arrive. None of the other teams took this route to the park, instead opting for a poorly maintained but more direct local road through Grappenhall.
