Rally of Otorohanga

An outstanding ratio of competitive kilometres to touring — a full day of proper gravel rallying, on roads that form part of the 2026 NZ Silver Fern Rally. Same Silver Fern atmosphere, same event infrastructure.

Documentation opens at 8:30 am, the first car is due out of Otorohanga at 10:00 am, and the rally returns to Otorohanga at 5:40 pm — eight stages over two identical loops of Te Rauamoa, Kaimango, Hauturu and Waipuna Roads, with a lunch halt and service in town.
