PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION TO HELP STOP THE SPREAD OF KAURI DIEBACK

A recent Auckland Council decision on increasing kauri die back protection across the region means a Controlled Area Notice is now in place in the Hunua Ranges. A Controlled Area Notice means there are certain things you must do before visiting these areas.

All footwear, gear and vehicles must be free from all visible soil before entering the park. (shoes will be checked at registration)
Foot wear should then be disinfected once soil has been removed. (we will do this via matts on the start line)
Stay on marked tracks and off Kauri roots.
Spectators to use wash stations when venturing onto the course (even if being transported in the supporter minivan)

Please be aware – failure to have clean footwear will result in you not being able to participate in the event.
