Peak to Pub

The Peak to Pub is back for its 16th year of snow, dirt, pavement, and everything in between! The race that promises to weed out the weak from the strong and those who coast from those who charge! It is a three-section race that can be done individually or in a team of three. The race starts on skis or snowboards from the peak of Mt Hutt down to the base area where you switch to a mountain bike and race down the mountain before running 11km to the Blue Pub in Methven for a well-deserved beer
