Experienced mountain runners need only apply!
As an Adventure Run competitor you will ascend a total of 2790 metres, traversing four peaks, (the highest point being Jack Halls Saddle at 1275 metres above sea level), negotiating rough tussock covered areas, long steep sidles and river crossings. In order to be accepted into this event both you and your team mate have to have proven mountain running experience - this is not for the novice adventure racer. It’s going to be an accomplishment you’ll remember and be very proud of for a long time to come.
This iconic route starts at Wanaka, Fern Burn and traverses through the Motatapu and Soho Stations, then into historic Macetown through to Butlers Green, Arrowtown. Described in places as merely a “marked route” the track covers 49km of exposed and physically challenging backcountry terrain crossing the Motatapu and Soho Stations.
