The race
Set against the backdrop of Waipu Caves Farm Park, this event features a purpose-built course that incorporates a variety of engaging obstacles. Participants can expect to navigate through mud ponds, water ponds, slippery slopes, log obstacles, and nets, enhancing the challenge and enjoyment of the experience.
The course allows for multiple laps, encouraging participants to set their own goals for the day. A key aspect of the event is the requirement for children aged 5-12 to be accompanied by an adult, fostering a family-friendly atmosphere.
Organized into two sessions, one in the morning and another in the afternoon, the event promotes community involvement and offers a lively environment for both participants and spectators. This event is part of a broader series at Waipu Caves Farm Park, highlighting the park’s commitment to recreational activities and outdoor fun.
