Canterbury Winter Trail Series: Mt Torlesse
July 12 All day
Event #3 in the series. Located just five minutes northeast of Springfield, at the base of the incredible Mount Torlesse, this venue delivers a classic Canterbury high-country trail experience. Runners traverse rugged rocky tracks, open tussock slopes, and sheltered pockets of mānuka and beech forest — with the added thrill of creek crossings that will leave you with wet feet and a smile. Long climbs and exposed ridgelines open up to breathtaking views of the Mount Torlesse Range and sweeping panoramas across the Canterbury Plains back to Christchurch — raw, remote, and unforgettable.
