We are 100% bringing it back! 🤣
Following a similar format to the last 2025 52 Peaks, 52 Weeks, the plan is to get to Jane's, John's Seat or even Amelia's seat ( Top of Mt. Vernon) 52 times within 2026.
Start at any car park in the Wither Hills Farm Park, up to any of the Seats and then returning to one of the car parks is one complete ascent. Any ascent and descent routes can be taken.
Jane's seat is the bench at the very top of Intersect Track & John's seat is nestled between the two sets of tanks, mid-way down the Reservoir Ridge track.
Amelias Seat is at the top of Mt. Vernon.
To make this all a little more fun, we will look at having a little prize for both the highest number of Seats in 52 weeks and the fastest to 52 seats too.
Keep your own record of ascents and let me know every couple of weeks so I can keep the tallies updated. You could also snap a photo and tag Blenheim Trail Runners or Blenheim Adventure Group on Strava or Instagram as proof!
Good luck and see you out on the trails.
Cheers,
Mikey
