All events start and finish at Event Base which is located at Dickey Flat Adventure Camp, 111 Dickey Flat Road, Waikino, 3682
Parking will be available on private land next to the event base. Head to Dickey's Flat Campsite and our parking marshals will direct you from there.
There is no specific Carpoolers area for this event - as you are all right where you need to be!
However, as we like to try and minimise our impact on the environment, and car parking space is not infinite, we hugely appreciate any efforts to carpool to events. It is also a great way to meet new buddies that you already have a common interest with!
If you'd like to get yourself a ride, or offer a space in your car, head over to Total Sport Community Group to find some new friends.

We are very privileged to have access to some wonderful tracks through some amazing native bush around the Karangahake Gorge area. We also want to keep the bush that way!! The Kauri Dieback Disease is thought to be a soil-borne species that basically root's Kauri tress, and kills them. No good at all! So please ALL follow these steps below, and if you have been running or driving in area's known to have the disease (most areas of native bush) please be extra vigilant when washing your shoes, and car tyres!
Make sure shoes, tyres and equipment are clean of dirt before and after visiting kauri forest.
Clean shoes and any other equipment that comes into contact with soil after every visit, especially if moving between bush areas.
Keep to defined park tracks at all times. Any movement of soil around the roots of a tree has the potential to spread the disease.
Keep your dog on a leash at all times. Dogs can inadvertently spread the disease if they disturb the soil around the trees.
Check out www.kauridieback.co.nz for more information on how you can help stop the spread.
