About

The Aramex Kiwi Walk & Run Series celebrates movement in all forms, set on some of Aotearoa’s most scenic off-road trails. Whether you’re a casual walker, a bush-loving hiker, or a trail runner chasing your next challenge—you’ll feel right at home here.

Each event has a relaxed, friendly atmosphere with fun touches like themed aid stations (yep, we’re the ones with Cookies and Jaffas), beautiful terrain, and zero pressure on pace.

Walk it, jog it, run it—whatever your style, we’re here for it. Around half of our community walks the courses, and the rest run or mix it up. It’s about enjoying the trail, however that looks for you.

With events held across the country, there’s a trail near you just waiting to be explored.
