Canterbury Winter Trail Run Series 1: Willesden Farms
Sunday, May 24, 2026 · Christchurch, New Zealand
Start location
Christchurch, NZ
About this race
Willesden Farms in Kaituna Valley provides the setting: paddocks and trail country beneath the Banks Peninsula hills, with the course shaped by "ancient volcanic landscapes" rather than anything polished or urban. Canterbury Winter Trail Run Series 1: Willesden Farms opens a four-event winter series, each held at a different location in the wider area.
Expect a true off-road morning, with "rolling ridgelines" challenging your legs and "hidden pockets of native bush" interspersed with exposed sections. The routes are named Slope Sprint, Midi Mountains, and Epic Endurance, indicating the intended challenge: short and sharp if desired, longer and more demanding if you seek a Banks Peninsula grind. Runners aiming for all four events have the additional incentive of series awards.
