Welcome to the 78th King and Queen of Mount Maunganui!

This event includes a social walk as well as a run to the summit of our beautiful Mauao. With options for all ages it is perfect for the whole family.

With a long history dating back to the 1940's it has been a staple on the local calendar for generations. This year we are introducing a social walk option to include people of all ages and abilities, so grab your friends and come be a part of history.

The main event includes plenty of prize money for place getters spread across lots of age groups, plus spot prizes galore!

As well as the potential to win prize money and spot prizes - all entrants in the junior (Under 16) category will receive a finishers medal to commemorate their achievement.

Starting on the beach by Moturiki (Leisure Island), participants head along the beach to the base of Mount Maunganui (don't worry, the tide will be right out!), up the historic stone steps, juniors turn around at the gate at the bush line while walkers and seniors head to the summit via the Waikorire Track, past the drink station at the summit then descend on the 4wd then Oruahine Track, back to the finish chute at Motoriki.

Entries are open now so grab your friends and family to join in the fun on this great day out!
