Unrivalled run, walk, and MTB courses through a back-country station.

400 spots. All-inclusive. An event experience like no other.

Nestled in the secluded Taharua Valley in New Zealand’s North Island – just a 40 minute drive from Taupo – Poronui is an authentic back-country station set in the foothills of the beautiful Kaimanawa Mountain Ranges.

A “luxury” trail event, Poronui Passage is the best way to treat trail lovers to the best in life; a challenging and insanely scenic MTB, run or walk wrapped up in all the luxury treatment you could wish for.

Think hot showers, free massage, gourmet post-event fare, craft beers and wine at the finish line, all the barista coffee you can drink, cosy blankets and fires, beautiful high-quality event apparel, epic medals, a stunning and inaccessible location, and heaps more.
