The Routeburn Classic mountain run is a mountain running event in New Zealand and is 32 km (20 mi) in distance, following the entire Routeburn Track. It is an annual event which was first held in 2001, and draws many local competitors as well as many international runners. Numbers are limited to about 350 for each event to reduce impact on the area, which is one of the great walks in New Zealand and is looked after by the Department of Conservation.
