The Race Tekapo will take place on 13 September 2025 at Lake Tekapo/Takapō, featuring multiple events designed to accommodate various levels of participants. The centerpiece of the race is the 50km event, which follows a figure-of-eight course starting and finishing at the lake’s edge, providing spectators the chance to view participants multiple times throughout the race.

The 32km course includes sections through Mt John and the Regional Park, offering a blend of flat trails and hilly terrain, accompanied by panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. The half marathon shares a similar route but excludes the Lagoon Loop. For those seeking a faster pace, the 16km course is predominantly flat. The 10km route leads runners up Mt John and alongside the lake, while the 5km course is a loop around the lakeside and through the Regional Park.

This event is notable for its scenic backdrop and diverse course options, catering to both runners and walkers. Additional details about cut-off times and post-race amenities can be found on the event’s official website.
