Fastest known times on routes in Egmont National Park, New Zealand.
Most of us are happy to enjoy the Egmont National Park mountain and bush tracks at our own pace, and trampers, climbers and trail-runners have set many speed records on Mt Taranaki, Pouakai and Kaitaki.
This website salutes record holders past and present and acts as a reference, whether you want to improve a personal benchmark or set a new speed record.
The spirit of good will
Good will and honesty play an important part in maintaining the credibility of these records though we do our best to verify times and routes before publishing. This is an ongoing project and we’re keen to add to our list of record holders so contact us if you can help or have another route to throw into the mix.
To understand how to set an Egmont National Park speed record check out the accepted rules and guidelines that have developed informally over the years.
Be safe and enjoy the park whether at a leisurely pace or in pursuit of your speed goals.
