Marathon tour goes the distance

Complete a 10km, half, or full marathon while enjoying an amazing holiday where all accommodation, transport, and logistics are taken care of? Active Adventures says, “Yes you can.”

Active Adventures’ Aoraki Marathon Adventure tour is a new move for the small hiking and adventure tour company that will see participants running a marathon and visiting three national parks in a week or less.

Flying into Christchurch and out of Queenstown, all trip logistics are taken care of, allowing more time to run, hike, and bike through the amazing scenery of the best spots on New Zealand’s South Island.

Begin with a 10km, half, or full marathon with Aoraki Mt Cook as your backdrop, before cycling part of the Alps to Ocean trail and hiking Wanakas Rocky mountain with views of Mt Aspiring National park. End in Fiordland National Park where you’ll hike the famous Kepler track and cruise in Milford Sound.
