2024 RACE INFO


The 3 Peaks Enduro has been rebranded as the Yeti Ōtepoti Enduro, marking a new chapter in the event's history!

This event has been a beloved staple of the MTB event scene in Dunedin for the past 11 years, bringing excitement and adrenaline to riders and spectators alike.

The Yeti Ōtepoti Enduro promises an epic weekend full of riding and fun on the exciting trails surrounding Dunedin. The event will feature a top-class race at two separate venues, with approximately 1800m of climbing and descending, and a relaxed time limit to ensure riders of all fitness levels can participate and enjoy the experience.

The Yeti Ōtepoti Enduro is a non-shuttle assisted Enduro, where riders must ride up to reach the start of the course to race down. The event is built around camaraderie, where riders come together to have fun, share laughs, and compete with one another, joined by the elite category who add an extra layer of excitement and inspiration.

The event aims to showcase the beautiful city of Dunedin and its riding trails, and we hope to see you here in December for the Yeti Ōtepoti Enduro!
