The race
About this course
The Trail Trilogy is a unique trail running adventure through the heart of the Hauraki and Karangahake Gorge, with five distances from 9km through to 100km.
Following the Hauraki Rail Trail, historic railway corridors and the stunning Karangahake Gorge, each distance offers its own challenge — from racing the heritage train over 9km to taking on the full 100km Hauraki Hundee.
With generous cut-offs, a welcoming atmosphere and distances for first-timers through to seasoned ultrarunners, the Trail Trilogy is about more than racing. Expect beautiful trails, plenty of history, awesome support and a proper No Code finish-line vibe.
