Leave the concrete behind and run thru the mud, over tree roots, on boardwalks crossing over marshes and bogs, past forests and prairies, and raise funds for environmental education at the same time.   Welcome to the Navarino Trail Run / Walk!   This event helps to support a wonderful non-profit that provides educational programs to 4,000 students and over 15,000 adults annually.   

Staff and volunteers will be using "Webscorer" to time participants at the 2024 event.   The nature center will have a timing display available, however we will not be offering professional timing for this event.  All participants will receive a participant medal.   The event will be held on Saturday, April 27th at 9 am.

Navarino Nature Center appreciates your support of this 2024 event.   Thank you for your support!

Staff and volunteers will prepare the trails in advance.    Staff will be here on Saturday, April 27th for packet pick up, starting the event, timing monitors, etc.
