Six Corners Challenge 2025

A self-supported bikepacking challenge.

Connect the six rideable corners of Golden Bay in 36 hours, Takaka to Takaka.

The Six Corners are: Cape Farewell Lookout, Brown Hut (start of Heaphy), Anatori River, Totaranui Beach, Rameka Track start & Trilobite Hut ). Each of these are awesome places and iconic NZ landscapes, all worthy of a visit in their own right.

No entry fees, no prizes, no tracking. You can do the "corners" in any order, but you must finish in the time limit. A star for every corner, lose a star for every hour you are late back! Some corners are harder than others.

The route is about 445km total, the western section is pretty flat (2000m+), the eastern section is not! (~4500m).
Start: The Village Green, Takaka 6am, 5 October, 2024
Finish: in the Roots Bar, Commercial St, by 6pm, 6 October, 2024
