About the race
The Gearshop Tasman Adventure Race is an annual team-based event held in Motueka, New Zealand. The 2026 edition is the third running and is scheduled for 14 November 2026. The event supports Motueka High School's Adventure Racing Squad as its main fundraising initiative.
Racing options are offered as timed formats rather than fixed-distance races:
- 4 hour team event
- 8 hour team event
- 12 hour team event
The race is organised in association with Wicked Rogaines and receives support from local sponsors and volunteers. The event also serves as a learning opportunity for senior squad members from Motueka High School to gain event support experience. Past students return to contribute skills and community knowledge, and volunteer activity is a significant part of event delivery.
The listed address for the event is c/o 1921 Motueka Valley Highway, Motueka 7196. The organiser mentions event media from a prior year, including a 2025 event video produced by Kahurangi Media. Information about mandatory gear, race rules, schedules, results and volunteering is indicated as available through the event channels.
