STUNNING TRAIL RUNNING and walking for all ages and abilities in the historic karangahake gorge
With flat and fast riverside trails, glorious climbs up Mt Karangahake and pristine native bush, few locations can compete with the Karangahake Gorge for drama, intrigue, and natural beauty.

TOWARDS ZERO WASTE
No more plastic cups!
As trail runners and nature lovers we're keen to do our part to protect our beautiful planet and reduce the environmental impact of our events. As such XTERRA Trail Challenge Waihi is removing disposable cups from all aid stations. Please remember your reusable cup, hydration pack or water bottle to fill up!
We’ll have collapsible silicone cups available at event base for $5.
