A Winter 5k Adventure
Join a herd of runners at Zoo Run Run! This winter race takes runners and walkers on a 5K adventure throughout the Zoo’s property, including areas not available to the public. Families and children are encouraged to bundle up as they hit the trail. Proceeds from Zoo Run Run help fund the Zoo's conservation work. Zoo Run Run is a rain, snow or shine event.
The Course
Friends and families are welcome to join us for a brisk stroll instead of a run. Be aware that some of the course is off-road.
Have little ones? Grab your off-road stroller and join the fun!
Please note, pets are not allowed on Zoo property and all service animals must be registered at the Zoo's ticket booth.
