Join us for a fun weekend just outside Lake Mburo National Park on Friday 3rd and Saturday 4th June 2016 at the Mihingo Lodge campsite. Friday 3rd June is a public holiday so you can leave Kampala in the morning and enjoy an exciting weekend at Lake Mburo National Park.

This is the ONLY run in Uganda where you have the chance to run alongside zebras and impalas, and perhaps even topi and warthogs. Nothing feels better than running Wild!

All participants should be at the Mihingo start line by 7.30 a.m. on Saturday 4th June. The races will start at intervals.

5 km Fun Run/ Walk
Adults $20 Children $15
10 km Run, Half or Full Marathon or 21 km Mountain Bike Race Adults $30 Children $15
Mountain Bike 5 km Relay (4 in a Team) per Person $15

Children fees apply for under 15’s and all fees include water, t-shirt and a MCF donation. All profits go to MCF and directly benefit the community and conservation.

Camping at Mihingo (Friday & Saturday) at $10 per person per night. Food will be provided at $5 per dinner (Friday & Saturday), $5 per lunch (Saturday only) and $3 for breakfast (Saturday & Sunday). The food will be simple and good, but nothing fancy, not like the Mihingo Lodge food.

You are also welcome to stay at Mihingo Lodge. All registered runners will receive a 10% discount.

There is a New Road to Mihingo that enables you to drive straight to Mihingo without having to enter the Park. If you want to save on Park fees please take the turning at Akageti which is a dirt road and takes you through the little village of Akashenshero straight to Mihingo Lodge (19 km from the main road).

All Proceeds go to Mihingo Conservation Foundation. Please contact us on [email protected] for more information and registration.
