Meridian Energy West Wind
We are absolutely stoked to be able to bring you one of the most unique piece of trail running in New Zealand, maybe even the world. The great folks at Meridian have once again allowed us access to over 25km of trails up amongst one of the most advanced wind farms in the world. High quality trails with more variety than you could ever expect, from pine needle tracks through forest, to coastal trails with the Cook Straight crashing on the rocks beside you, to ridge lines with the South Island only 25 kilometers away. And finally, and uniquely, you’ll be running amongst 110 meter wind turbines.
For the newbies wanting to sign up it can be a bit iffy to refer to Trail Runs in terms of distance because so much depends on the nature of the trail. It’s generally more accurate to talk about the time it takes to complete the trail. Check out our website for all the info you need about the West Wind Trails.
