Anahola Max Enduro 2026

​We’re Back for Round Two—and This Time, It’s Enduro! Building on the incredible energy of our first event, MTB Kauai is returning to the East Side trails for our second race. Welcome to our first-ever Enduro race: The ANAHOLA MAX ENDURO! We are partnering once again with the ʻĀina Alliance to bring organized racing back to Anahola. This isn’t just a race; it’s a celebration of our community and a commitment to land stewardship. Caring for the ʻāina and maintaining our trail networks is at the very heart of this event, and we can’t wait to share these responsibly managed trails with you.

​An Amazing Experience for Spectators: Unlike traditional cross-country races where riders disappear into the forest for hours, Enduro racing is a massive win for spectators! The timed downhill format means high-speed, high-stakes action. Grab a cowbell, hike out, and line the trails to cheer on the riders as they drop in one by one and tackle the terrain.

​We are running a competitive event with distinct categories for Analog and E-Bike competitors. The race is sponsored by MTB Kauai but is open to anyone. Registration will be capped to ensure the best possible racer experience and is open to the public. MTB Kauai members are guaranteed a spot, in addition to reduced registration fees.
