A 30-32km loop of Motutapu Island from Rangitoto Island.
The goal is nothing over 5hr30min so we don’t miss the return ferry.
This is an adventure run, taking in the Northern/Eastern coastal tracks, visiting up to 5 beaches and historical/archaeological sites. There is so much history and beauty on this island!
If time permits, we summit Rangitoto on the return.
We return on the 4 PM ferry.
9:00 AM - Meet at the Downtown Ferry Terminal
9:15 AM - Ferry departure (to avoid disappointment and save, buy online the day prior - $58 return) (this ferry does go via Devonport)
10 AM - 3:30 PM - We run
4:00 PM - Return Ferry
As we encourage you to reduce your carbon footprint, please consider carpooling or using public transport to get to the Auckland/Devonport Ferry Terminal.
Motutapu Island is undulating and sections of the trails can be very slow.
We start and finish with a 6km gravel road each way, between the Rangitoto jetty and the causeway.
It is a mixture of open road and technical tracks.
Please ensure you carry a minimum of 2 litres of hydration, sufficient food, a basic first aid kit and sun protection.
It is highly recommended to bring a change of clothing, which we stash in our usual hiding spot at the start.
Anyone and everyone is welcome.
