The race
About this course
Set against the backdrop of the rugged south coast and the isolated interior of Remutaka Forest Park, this event presents a challenging trail running experience. The course features rocky river crossings, steep descents, and stunning coastal views, making for a technically demanding adventure suited for experienced runners.
Participants should be prepared for a point-to-point route that is not fully marked in some sections, with limited marshaling throughout. Self-sufficiency is essential, and individuals with less backcountry experience are encouraged to travel in teams for safety.
The event fosters a relaxed, grassroots atmosphere, emphasizing community involvement and support for local conservation initiatives. This creates a unique sense of camaraderie among participants, who share a passion for rugged terrain and nature. Organised by the Wilderness Running and Endurance Collective Inc., the event reflects a commitment to outdoor adventure and environmental stewardship.
