Speaking about the event, it is the seventh edition of the International GS trophy which will be held from 9th to 16th February 2020. New Zealand is the chosen place for this event because the island offers an ideal terrain where the rainforest meets glaciers, steppe-like flora meets subtropical flora. There are high plateaus and mountain peaks with heights of over 3000 meters. Not to forget those fjord landscapes and countless uplands and woodlands. These conditions make for the exciting trails and grueling challenges.
Teams from other countries include – Australia, Japan, Latin America, Malaysia, Mexico, Middle East, China, France, Italy Russia, South Africa, South Korea, Thailand, UK, and the USA. Nordic countries like Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and Finland will also take part.
