The Aramex Kiwi Walk & Run Series, Presented by Subaru, is a trail run and walking event with a kiwi twist.

The Aramex Kiwi Walk & Run Series is a trail run and walk event series all about exploring some of New Zealand’s best trails! This is a trail event like no other and is complete with your favourite iconic kiwi tastes and flavours with on course pitstops featuring delicious treats. 

There’s an option for everyone whether you love trail running, or just taking your time to walk the trails.

The Series returns to the stunning Blue Lake, Rotorua on October 14 for the Generation Homes Trek the Forest. Trail walk or run the 5.5km or 13.5km course and enjoy the iconic kiwi-themed pitstops along the way.


Located at the beautiful Blue Lake, this course weaves around the Blue lake for the short course, and parts of the Blue and Green Lake for the long course. Set amongst native bush, this course will leave you speechless at the beauty of our backyard!


The event makes for a great weekend away in Rotorua. The long course is a good distance day out for keen walkers and runners. The short course is an easy loop great for first timers and all fitness levels with a 90% well-formed track (10% more technical single track).
