2024 Meridian Twizel Hard Labour Weekend

The Meridian Twizel Hard Labour Weekend is a multi-sport event that takes place every October in the stunning high country of the Mackenzie Region. There are three events over two days – canal kayak (20km), mountain bike (16km or 40km), and off-road run or walk (10km or 21km) – with options for almost everyone, from multi-sport athletes to families. Kids can do the Mini Dusky mountain bike (10km) or run/walk the Mini Pyramid (5km). People can enter individual events or, for the really keen, complete all three events and become a “Hard Labourer”!
