Another of Auckland's hidden gems, Totara Park is packed with variety in every course distance and delivers heaps of smile-inducing running and walking. You'll breathe in plenty of fresh air as you run or walk through the trails and encounter some fast, hard single trails twisting their way throughout the green rolling hills.

Just a hop, skip and jump from Auckland’s city centre, this natural bushland setting will still provide you with a marvellous escape to the wilds.

The Auckland XTERRA Series is a series of 6 trail running/walking events within an hour of the Auckland CBD. This series is for anyone who likes to keep fit and be held accountable over the winter months and is all about getting you onto the best trails. You can choose to come along to 1 event, 6 events or any number in between – whatever works for you!

Each Auckland XTERRA Series event offers four distance options:

• Short (5 - 8km) Run or Walk

• Mid (10 - 14km) Run or Walk

• Long (16 - 20km) Run Only

• Super Long (20km+) Run Only

There's always some challenging but achievable terrain to tame while you're out there, and there will ALWAYS be a cold Speight’s and a hot sausage (including veggie) for you when you get to the finish!
