The Arc'teryx Routeburn Classic on 18 April 2026 is an adventure run over the world-renowned Routeburn Track, in Fiordland, New Zealand.

This 32km point to point off road course reaches an impressive elevation of 1127 metres and highlights the breathtaking beauty within the designated World Heritage Area, Fiordland National Park.

With diverse terrains ranging from lush native bush to exposed alpine environments, runners face demanding uphill climbs and challenging descents. The track is mostly technical in nature with rocks and tree roots all a part of the challenge. The descent back to native forest follows river and waterfalls to the finish line.

The event is limited to 400 entrants only.
