10km Run/Walk

The 10km event is an excellent step up from the 5km and a great little challenge.

Starting from the Kinloch Domain you will head left onto Mata Place, and follow the roads through to Boojum Dell. From there you will drop into the gully and follow the Boardwalk down to the lake front. Head along the lakefront to the Marina and over the bridge, you will hear the music and MC as you go past the Kinloch Domain.

You will then head along the cliff top reserve to the scenic Whangamata Stream Track. Turn right and follow the stream to the top of the track. Over Lynley's Bridge to return down the stream back to the lake front, taking in the varying scenery (don't forget to have a look at the Water Wheel!).

Back at the lakefront, take a right towards Kawakawa Bay for a short out and back. Turn around at the style, then head along the beach track to the finish line at the Kinloch Domain.
