About
About this parkrun
Waitangi Forest parkrun is a free, timed 5km walk, jog or run every Saturday at 8am, starting beside the Waitangi Mountain Bike Park hub on Te Wairoa Road in the Bay of Islands. It is a different event from the Waitangi parkrun on the Wellington waterfront.
How it works
Register once with parkrun, bring your barcode, and turn up. A volunteer walks at the back, so nobody finishes last. For cancellations and results, check the official event page.
The course
Out 2.5km and back the same way, mostly on compacted gravel forestry road. It is close to flat, with a gentle climb on the way out, so the way back is the quicker half. After rain, expect puddles and some mud.
Where is it?
Waitangi Mountain Bike Park, Te Wairoa Road, Waitangi, Bay of Islands 0200. Parking is free at the bike park car park, and there are toilets beside it. There is no drinking water at the venue, so bring your own.
