Course
Starting and finishing at Parkway Park the 12km course climbs up a bush track gradually getting steeper until you reach the pylon firebreaks. From there it follows firebreaks on a series of up and downs until eventually reaching the bottom of "the hill from hell". After a steep climb to the summit the course heads down towards the top of the Wainuiomata hill road passing by stunning views of Wellington harbour. The track back to the finish line twists and turns its way down one of the newest bush tracks in Waiu Park.
The 5km course is predominantly through bush with a gradual ascent to just above the top of the Wainuiomata hill road summit followed by a roller coaster descent back down to the finish line.
Entrants are advised to be prepared for the possibility of cold weather and to dress accordingly.
First aid and a drink stop for the 12km event will be available at the location shown on the map.
