Follow event Follow series Run/Walk Off Road/Trail

The Barefoot XTRAIL Series West Wind race at Meridian Wind Farm on 10 May 2026 is part of an annual series of off road trail runs.

The great folks at Meridian have allowed access to over 25km of trails up amongst one of the most advanced wind farms in the world. High quality trails with more variety than you could ever expect, from pine needle tracks through forest, to coastal trails with the Cook Straight crashing on the rocks beside you, to ridge lines with the South Island only 25 kilometres away. And finally, and uniquely, you’ll be running amongst 110 metre wind turbines.

Each race in the series has short, medium and long distances, which equate to approximately 5km to 7km for short courses, 10km to 14km for medium courses, and 17km to 20km+ for long courses.
