Course highlights
The journey begins on Selwyn Place, before an unforgettable send-off down Nelson’s vibrant main street, Trafalgar Street. From there, runners join the Maitai River Trail and climb the historic Dun Mountain Trail—New Zealand’s first railway. As the native forest gives way along the ridgeline, runners are rewarded with breathtaking 360-degree views across the rugged Richmond Ranges and the serene Tasman Bay. Throughout this demanding journey, runners are supported by the event’s legendary volunteers, and together with the Nelson community, they celebrate their achievements in closing festivities in the heart of the city.
