RESILIENCE ULTRA
SAT 21ST JAN 2023
Welcome to the 'Resilience Ultra' which is proudly powered by New Zealand Red Cross. Brought to life as a fundraiser for the largest humanitarian network in the world and in recognition of the bountiful landscapes of the West Coast, this endurance run is not for the faint hearted! Do you have the mental and physical resilience to complete this gruelling ultramarathon?
Starting and finishing in the historic town of Reefton, Resilience will take you on a journey into the past by venturing through the native beech forests and historic goldfields of Victoria Forest Park. Many of the tracks have been formed by linking mining roads, tracks and tramways that are as historic as the relics found along them. These iconic trails reveal many tales and give you a glimpse of what life was once like in “Quartzopolis”.
62km Ultra
The 62km Ultra offers a true test or resilience that will take you through some of the most spectacular trails within Victoria Forest Park. With a total elevation gain of almost 2,300m this is not a course for the fainthearted!

35km Painkiller
The 35km Painkiller provides a trail running challenge for those who still want an adventure but without the brutal elevation gain. Trust us when we say this course lives up to it's name!

27km Crusher
The 27km Crusher is a slightly shorter option for those wanting an adventure through the stunning beach forest of Victoria Park. Crush your way through the trails like the gold miners of times gone by!

10km Gold
Just because this is the shortest course, don't think we have let you off lightly! Short but sharp, this 10km course is not to be underestimated!
