The Zoo Run is a joint fundraising project with AEFI, Secret Creek Sanctuary and Featherdale Wildlife Sanctuary.
Secret Creek will be holding the First EXTREME ZOO RUN. This 6km run is in the BUSH in one of the most beautiful and unique areas on this side of the Blue Mountains. Although only 5 minutes from the centre of Lithgow, Secret Creek Wildlife Sanctuary is tucked up in a tranquil and secluded gully, perfect for your 6km ZOO RUN. If you are after a challenge this is the ZOO RUN for you.
f you prefer to take in the beauty of the surroundings, stop and find a quiet place to relax and enjoy the bush without venturing too far away from civilisation then this is also your ZOO RUN, but we will ask you to leave after the runners and just enjoy the 6km bush walk.If you prefer to take in the beauty of the surroundings, stop and find a quiet place to relax and enjoy the bush without venturing too far away from civilisation then this is also your ZOO RUN, but we will ask you to leave after the runners and just enjoy the 6km bush walk.
