This unique ultramarathon event takes place near Naseby – the highest town in New Zealand at 2000ft above sea level. Naseby is 15km north-west by road from Ranfurly and 145km north-west (via Middlemarch) from Dunedin. The race is held on the last weekend of August each year.
Originally the Water Race was built for gold mining around 1860 and now it provides the water supply to the town of Naseby and a stunning backdrop for this intense race.
