The James Stampede Ultra Mountain Run

A full-on 50km "adventure mountain-run" with multiple river crossings, an average altitude of 850m (highest point just over 1300m) and several short sections with no physical track on the ground e.g. across "the racecourse" and down "the bums rush".

Average time: Womens 7:49:55, Mens 6:54:40, overall 7:06:18.

All within the stunning, epic New Zealand sub alpine high country landscapes of St James Station behind Hanmer Springs. The Stampede has it all - mountain passes, high country lakes, sweeping tussock high country, beech clad braided river valleys, river crossings, swing bridges and superb single track...

Entry opens 1st Aug.
