Part of the legendary Challenge Family global series, renowned the world over for their memorable events, Challenge Wanaka is the race of a lifetime and the perfect opportunity to compete and holiday in paradise.
Join over 1,000 top professional and age group athletes from all over the world for the 3.8km swim in crystal clear waters, the 180km bike taking in three alpine lakes and the 42.2km run which is 75% off-road along the water’s edge.
