Event description | Oceania Championships in sprint, middle, long and relay for all age classes and abilities plus World Cup in sprint, middle and long |
Terrain description | Sprint - University campus with some areas of parkland, ornamental gardens and areas of detailed buildings. Middle - Intricate granite terrain with many cliffs and boulders and areas of broken rocky ground. Variable runnability. Some steeper slopes. Long - Principally gully spur terrain with areas of complex granite and small areas of remnant alluvial tin mining. Runnability generally very good. Bands of thick vegetation and marshes in major gullies provide challenges in route selection. |
