Description

Nga Tai Whakarongo will be reintroducing the Waikato Awa Race in 2017 and we are looking forward to hosting clubs from around the region and potentially from around the country.

We have tried to provide some variety in race distances, but we have also provided the 30km to allow paddlers to use it as preparation for other races, like Long Distance Nationals or Vaka Eiva 2017. We acknowledge that it will be a bit different given it is on the mighty Waikato Awa with its sometimes unpredictable currents.
