San Ignacio (Cahal Pech)- San Ignacio (Hawkesworth Bridge)

As a result of re-entering The Amazing Race Australia, Fliss & Tottie, Jodie & Claire, Kelly & Georgia and Tiffany & Cynthia had to complete a Speed Bump, where they had to clean 10 items of school furniture before they could continue racing.
This leg’s Detour was a choice between Score or Solve. In Score, teams had to play pok-a-tok and score a goal by getting a ball through a ring without using their hands to receive their next clue. Teams had to go to the back of the queue if they missed after six attempts. In Solve, teams had to solve a puzzle by spinning 36 movable pieces, each of which had Maya numerals, so that each number appeared only once in any direction to receive their next clue. The blocks with red marks were already in the correct position.
- Additional tasks
- At Santa Cruz School, teams had to weed a plotted section of a greenhouse, plant ginger, lemongrass and chili so that they matched an example plot and repair a section of roof and siding to receive their next clue from the school principal.
- At Hawkesworth Bridge, teams had to memorise the 18 months on a Maya calendar. Then, teams had to paddle a canoe down the Macal River, much like during La Ruta Maya, find 18 engraved stones and place them in chronological order on a blank calendar to receive their next clue.
- Additional note
- Teams began the leg by departing Battlefield Park at the same time.
