Join Solar Power NZ Skedaddle 2025

Taking place at the majestic Island Hills Station, Solar Power NZ Skedaddle is one of the most well loved trail events on the calendar!

With nature at the heart of the event, all proceeds go towards conservation efforts for the Mandamus Reserve Charitable Trust which includes the largest QEII Open Space Covenant in Canterbury, New Zealand.

The race consists of five distances; 42km, 30km, 15km, 10km and a kids 4km. The courses are all point-to-point along stunning singletrack through the privately-owned Island Hills Station.

Aptly named after the highest point on the property, Mt Skedaddle (1704m), it’s time to take flight for nature!
