Your journey will take you along some of the most beautiful beaches and coastlines in New Zealand. You’ll enjoy epic views of the world renowned Mercury Bay.

It’s your race at your pace

We encourage both walkers and runners, and those who do a bit of both.

Celebrate

We know the effort it takes to run or walk these distances, so all runners and walkers will receive a fantastic finishers medal to commemorate the big day out.

Relax, you’re on Coromandel time

The host town of Whitianga is an idyllic and relaxing location with top notch accommodation, restaurants and recreational activities – we suggest making it a ‘long weekend’.
