Run for Wildlife Spring 10k 2026

Curlys and the Yorkshire Wildlife Park team are very pleased to be returning with the fantastic 10k running safari, in support of the Wildlife Foundation for a fourth year !

We have a different animal theme every event, so far for the 10k we've had Tapirs, Lions and Rhinos. FOR 2025 we introduced the rather exceptional very pretty and generally amazing OKAPI! ... who knows who our animal chum is for 2026!

It's a great route for PBs, and one big single loop of the park and grounds taking in as much of the park as possible :) 

It's on mixed surface, so roads, park paths, a spot of trail and some grass... but all very runner friendly and road shoes are fine! 

Everyone is welcome! It's a super friendly run in a unique setting. Whether you walk, jog, run, or a bit of everything, it's a great day out :) 

Run alongside some amazing animals, including Lions, Rhinos, Giraffes, Rhinos, Baboons, Tapir's! and many amazing animals!

Bring your spectators, junior runners and all of your running friends :-)

Once you've done your run, then enjoy the whole day out at the park (all included in your entry ticket :) )

Go for a PB on this fully UK Athletics licensed course, or take a more leisurely view, and run with friends in fancy dress!
