The Hillary Trail passes through a number of beachside communities which offer a range of accommodation options. This accommodation is listed on Auckland Council page on the Hillary Trail
We offer buses from the finish line/event centre to the start of each event on the morning of the event so keeping this on mind when booking accommodation would make sense.
There is no transport from the finish to the start lines in the afternoon, when you finish your run. So it is set up that you drive the the finish, park you car and bus to the start line. Thereby having your car there to use once finished.
