CHALLENGE

The event is one of the gems of New Zealand adventure racing, where up to 450-teams of 3-women take part in a thrilling adventure that includes rafting, mountain biking, hiking and navigation.

There are two Spring Challenge events held each year, one in the South Island and one in the North. This year Westport will be hosting the South Island Spring Challenge and Taupo the north.

The man behind the event, 5 x Adventure Racing World Champion, Nathan Fa'avae, ensures this is an event to remember. Put it on ya calender, event registration is now open at www.springchallenge.co.nz
