Trail Running & Walking Event

There are courses suitable for a seasoned trail runner or a beginner wanting to try trail running.
There are three distances to choose from. Each course takes runners and walkers through this little-known conservation area and provides the opportunity to inhale pristine alpine air.
Competitive – of course! But open to all. Don’t let this opportunity slip by!

● Teetotal Traverse Half Marathon sponsored by Edridge Contracting
● Big Bush Kaka Challenge 13km sponsored by Alpine Lodge
● Skating Pond Stride 8km sponsored by Bruce Batty Summit Real Estate

Proceeds from the event will be shared between Active4Good and two local charities, the MTB Trails Trust and Friends of Rotoiti Trust, to support their valuable work in this area. Active4Good is a non-profit organisation that raises funds to distribute to active recreation projects in Nelson Tasman.
After the event it’s awards and lunch time at Alpine Lodge, St Arnaud - come and enjoy the hospitality that the Unterberger Family, Alexandra & Leighton and their team have become famous for over the last 40 years.
