Description: The Ruapehu Trail Festival is the ultimate trail running and walking festival, featuring the Sky Waka Vertical Challenge, Ring of Fire, and Tussock Traverse.
This is one beast of a trail running and walking festival held in the Tongariro National Park .
Something BIG happened in March 2023 when Victory Events brought together two outstanding, trusted events, the Ring of Fire and Tussock Traverse ! The location was awe-inspiring , the atmosphere was exhilarating and the Ruapehu region was pumping!
Although the Ring of Fire will take a year off in 2024, you can still enter the 20th Anniversary Tussock Traverse (happening on Saturday 3rd February 2024) here . We hope to make an additional announcement on the Sky Waka Vertical Challenge shortly too.
