The Macpac XTERRA Auckland Trail Series is a series of 6 trail running/walking events within an hour of the Auckland CBD. This series is for anyone who likes to keep fit and be held accountable over the winter months and is all about getting you onto the best trails. You can choose to come along to 1 event, 6 events, or any number in between – whatever works for you!
And in keeping with the series, we want you to prove you have what it takes to get out and about around Auckland.
Each peak from our Auckland peak directory bagged this month gets you a point on the leaderboard. Every time you summit a peak, even if it's the same peak, you'll increase your chances of winning!
Remember, it must be a peak within the Auckland region to count! Check them out here.
We have two free series entries up for grabs, worth up to $970! This will get you entry to all six of the Auckland events, and any distance you fancy!
One will be awarded as a spot prize, but remember each peak bagged in Auckland gets you an entry into the spot prize draw!
Another free series entry will be awarded to the best photo fo you, on a peak in Auckland shared on Instagram, tagging both @wildthingsnz and @aucklandxterra!
No worries — you can join a Wild Challenge at any time while it's running.
When you join, we'll automatically award any challenge points you've earned since the challenge started, so you won't miss out just because you joined late.
If you've only just connected Strava or Garmin, we'll sync your last three months of activities too, so eligible activities can still count towards the challenge.
Connect your Strava or Garmin account to Wild Things and we'll automatically sync your activities and add any that qualify to the challenge.
You don't need to add activities manually — just get out there and do your thing! Each challenge has its own criteria for earning points, so check the challenge details above to see what counts.
If you use both Strava and Garmin, you can connect both — we won't create duplicate activities.
Absolutely. You can join as many Wild Challenges as you like, and the same activity can earn points across multiple challenges if it meets the criteria for each one.
We usually draw challenge winners a few days after the challenge finishes. We wait at least 2–3 days to allow any late activities to sync from Strava or Garmin before finalising the results.
If you're a winner, we'll get in touch with you directly.
