Kaukau Skyline Traverse

The races will take place on the western hills of Johnsonville along the Skyline Track over Mt Kaukau. The race start/finish area is on the small reserve between the ends of McLintock Street and Carmichael Street.

Race headquarters is found at Olympic Harriers Clubrooms at Waiora Hub, the community and sports centre in Johnsonville. It is a short 5 minute drive from Waiora Hub to the race start and finish area. There is plenty of parking next to Waiora Hub. Please consider ride sharing when heading to the start/finish area, or even better, use the 1.75km distance as a warmup and warm down for your race. The Kaukau Skyline Traverse will host the 2026 New Zealand and Wellington Mountain Running Championships, bringing together the best mountain runners from across the country.
