The Walter Peak High Country Run is scheduled for 22 March 2025, taking place at the scenic Walter Peak High Country Farm near Queenstown. Notably, this event will not occur in 2024, making the 2025 edition particularly anticipated. Participants begin their journey with a 45-minute cruise on Lake Wakatipu aboard the historic TSS Earnslaw, a coal-fired steamship that departs from Steamer Wharf in downtown Queenstown, providing a unique travel experience to the race start line.

The race features trail running courses that offer stunning views of the surrounding mountains and the lake, enhancing the outdoor experience. Both courses commence and conclude near the wharf, ensuring easy access for participants and spectators alike. The picturesque backdrop of the high country farm and the iconic steamship adds to the event’s distinctive character. Post-race amenities and activities are typically available, contributing to a welcoming atmosphere for participants.

Organized by ActiveQT, this event highlights the natural beauty of the region while providing a challenging yet rewarding running experience.
