Course Map
The 5k Route is an incredible and scenic tour of the vineyards and starts and finishes at the winery!
If you're looking for a personal best 5k time this is probably not the best course for you, but if you're looking for the most fun time you've had at a 5k this one is for you!
The mostly cross country style course is very suitable for both runners and walkers. We offer a 2 lap course. If you do not feel doing the course twice in the vines, you are more than welcome to step out after lap 1 and do more laps on the wines! Cheers!

Absolutely! We have been getting many inquiries about virtual participation and have integrated a virtual option into our regular registration.
