Mt Difficulty Ascent

This is an ADVENTURE RUN folks, the ‘adventure’ part means you can’t run all of this course. The serious stuff on this course is off track. There may be some sheep tracks but you’ll be following bright orange/red wide trail marking tape – there will be plenty so no reason to get lost.

Most of the ‘gentler’ sections are following high country 4WD tracks, these are still mostly quite technical to run and there could easily be snow across sections of them.

MAKE SURE your shoes have good grip on them. This is not the race for one last outing with a favourite old pair of shoes – this is a very good excuse to buy a new pair!
