Ten years ago, Kathmandu joined Coast to Coast on a journey to transform New Zealandβs most iconic multisport race, from a gritty test of endurance for the elite to a celebration of adventure for all.
Since 2016, weβve braved winterβs bite, sprinted off Kumaraβs rugged shore, scrambled up Dudleyβs Knob, navigated Salmon Rapid and toiled down Old West Coast Road, helping carry every stone and every dream to New Brightonβs finish line. All with one unwavering purpose: to make the outdoors more accessible.
As we reflect on the decade gone and look forward to the one ahead, we celebrate our shared South Island heritage and all that we stand for together: community, challenge, and deep connection to the outdoors.
Kathmandu and Coast to Coast. Weβre out there.
The Kathmandu Coast to Coast has become a rite of passage for multisport athletes from around the world, with over 20,000 people having completed the event in the 40+ years to date.
Held every February, the race starts on the West Coast, and traverses the width of the South Island, crossing the main divide, and finishing at the Pier on New Brighton Beach in Christchurch. With 243 kilometres of trail running, cycling, and kayaking - this race is not for the faint-hearted. Find all details on theΒ official Coast to Coast page.
