Shotover Moonlight Mountain Marathon

The Shotover Moonlight Mountain Marathon is an off road running event held in February each year on Ben Lomond High Country Station in Queenstown, New Zealand. The longer courses start beside the famous Shotover River. You’ll run along sheep tracks, historic gold mining water races and high country mustering routes. The scenery is forever changing as you climb and descend through tussock lands, mountain ridges, beech forest and creeks, a scree slope descent, a ladder climb beside a waterfall and even a tunnel on the valley floor.
