About the Safari Run course


    1.       The Safari Run course goes through the Wildlife Park, Petting Farm, Safari Park, and surrounding woods.
    2.      This is a  all terrain which means there is gravel  and uneven terrain including trail creeks and woods.
    3.      The woods can be bypassed if you so choose. You may add another loop around the safari park instead.
    4.    There will be 2 small water Crossings that we will have pavers/ boards in place to help cross but can also be jumped over.
    5.     The total course is about 3 miles and includes 2 loops at safari so you will get to see lots of animals!      
    6.    There is one water station which you will pass around mile 1 and 2             

    ◦    Safety!  Stay on designated road / path .  Please do not go up to exhibits , animals or fences during the race!   After the race you will have a chance to interact with a few animal ambassadors!   This is for your safety and the well being of the animals ​
