Course

Te Aroha

The venue provides full training facilities (approx 80 horses in work), and is home to Racing Te Aroha which now holds approximately ten meetings each season which has increased significantly from previous years.  Two grandstands overlooking the track provide patrons with excellent viewing of the racing, with several of the lounges having been refurbished in recent years.  The Te Aroha track is considered by many as one of the finest winter racing surfaces in New Zealand, where all horses are given an opportunity to perform with one of the longest home straights in the country.
