The Trek the Forest Trail event is scheduled for 18 October 2025, taking place at Blue Lake/Tikitapu in Rotorua. This event is part of the 2025 Aramex Kiwi Walk & Run Series, which highlights a combination of scenic landscapes and varied terrain.

Participants will experience a course that showcases the natural beauty of the Rotorua region. The shorter course circles around Lake Tikitapu, while the longer courses venture into the Whakarewarewa forest, offering views of Green Lake and the area’s ancient forests. The terrain consists predominantly of well-formed tracks, with a smaller section featuring more technical single track, catering to different levels of experience.

This event contributes to the Aramex Kiwi Walk & Run Series, which encourages outdoor activity and community engagement. Post-race amenities and activities will be available, allowing participants to enjoy the surrounding environment after completing their run. The Trek the Forest Trail is characterized by its picturesque setting and the opportunity to explore the rich ecological heritage of the region.
