Chan lets you in on his secret route reserved for those windy Wellington days. This may be a much needed addition to your running repertoire as it enables you to get a somewhat sheltered workout without having to muddy your feet and hide in the bush. Go run it and enjoy the Wellington suburb experience at its best. Several en route coffee stop options guarantee that you will have the right amount of fun with (almost) no wind, of course.
We continue with our trail streak – just letting you know that some road routes will also be coming soon. This time Emma invites you for an undulating run around the fence surrounding the Zealandia Sanctuary. You’ll be treated to great hilltop views on your endeavour, but this is not the only reason why we recommend exploring this area. You should indulge in the rich trail network, allowing to connect to different suburbs, to create your own adventure each time.
This week’s addition to our collection of trail running routes is Dena’s Otari-Wilton’s Bush Loop which also takes you up to Johnston Hill. A native bush escape only 5 kms from downtown Wellington, Otari-Wilton’s Bush feels like another world. If you haven’t been there, now you have no excuse!
We have just published the second Run Wellington curated trail running route. This one takes you on a venture through the great trail network of Mt Victoria, right in the vicinity of Wellington CBD. Thanks to Chan for the great write up!
Our first trail running route is live and ready for you to come check it out. Thanks Emma for the great write-up that describes Wellington’s Polhill Reserve trail running playground!
