Standouts

---

Flat point-to-point marathon from Anderson Park, Napier to Elephant Hill Estate & Winery, with ~30m elevation gain, half on limestone vineyard trails. Boston-qualifying certified.

Why attend here

May in Hawke's Bay brings crisp autumn air and golden light, perfect for a race that winds past vineyards and along the coast before finishing among the vines at Elephant Hill. Afterward, treat yourself to a cellar-door tasting of the region's famed reds and a plate of fresh local produce, then take a lazy stroll along Marine Parade to watch the sun set over the Pacific.
