Solar Power NZ Skedaddle Forecast

Taking place at the majestic Island Hills Station, Solar Power NZ Skedaddle is one of the most well loved trail events on the calendar! With nature at the heart of the event, all proceeds go towards conservation efforts for the Mandamus Reserve Charitable Trust which includes the largest QEII Open Space Covenant in Canterbury.

We would love to have you join us on Saturday 26 April 2025!

The race consists of five distances; 42km, 30km, 15km, 10km and a kids 4km. The courses are all point-to-point along stunning singletrack through the privately-owned Island Hills Station. 

Aptly named after the highest point on the property, Mt Skedaddle (1704m), it’s time to take flight for nature!
