The Lion Foundation Rotorua Marathon is more than just a circuit of Lake Rotorua – it is an experience. You can look forward to the fantastic local supporters, the tradition of the Novotel Pasta Party, Prize-giving and Asics Sports Expo, and it is responsible for giving thousands of people a great feeling of pride, and sore muscles! The Village Green, Lakeside, Rotorua is once again home to the events, and with the Lion Foundation Marquee hosting Registration, Asics Sports Expo, Massage, and Sunday’s breakfast. The Marathon start is 9.00am, with the 5km & 10km start at approximately 9.15am.  All three events begin beside the Green on Tutanekai Street (outside Pizza Hut), with the finish on the Green itself.

We have some suggestions for alternative accommodation towns that with a rental car are within reasonable driving distance of the venue.

Before or after the event New Zealand offers a world of experiences that are new and exciting. The spectacular scenery and easy driving conditions make it a perfect choice for a self-drive holiday. Choosing where to stay can be a highlight of planning your New Zealand holiday. From farm stays and cosy B&B's, through to unique luxury lodges, the choice is endless.

If you are traveling to New Zealand from around the world why not combine your visit with a stopover in another exciting destination. Visit our sister site www.hotelslookandbook.com for great accommodation ideas anywhere in the world.
