Join us for the best day out ever!
The Rangitikei Adventure Race is based around different sections of the Rangitikei River known as ‘The Jewel in the Crown’ of the region and thus gives it’s name to the surrounding district which in fact means “The Day of Striding Out” which is rather fitting for an adventure race!
At 240kms the Rangitikei River is one of New Zealand’s longest and most scenically stunning rivers. Its sheer vertical papa (clay) white cliffs (which are unique to this part of NZ) and deep canyons provide the perfect setting for adventure activities such as white water rafting and kayaking.
The river is surrounded by some of the most scenic (and steep) farmland in NZ and is bordered by the Kaimanawa and Ruahine Ranges.
Race Duration:
6 Hour and 12 Hour Races
Race Location:
Taihape & Mangaweka area
The countdown is on!
This year the Rangitikei Adventure Race will include a 6hr duathlon and 12hr paddling and duathlon options and all will be run in a rogaine style format.
Thank you to our wonderful supporters
