Course subject to change. The Whakarewarewa is a production forest, so there may be changes to the course at any time. GPS data may have a variation of up to 5%.​
TRAIL GRADING
The course does not require a high-level of technical skill with the majority of the stages being on grades 1- 3. 
There is one  grade 4 trail, however all the easy lines are extremely well marked and all rollable with clear B-lines around any features. Navigation skills are not needed with our well-marked route.
