Runners will continue past the flamingo pond, through the lovely winding paths of the world desert area and on to the African habitat. After passing zebras, camels and giraffes, the route zigzags past lions and chimps (who may be cheering you on) and around the big cat oasis before heading back to the main entrance.
This is a great opportunity to get out and get active while also contributing to a very worthwhile cause. Maybe you can even outsprint the cheetah?
You can join Al Ain Zoo residents for a 2.5km short lap, 5km long lap or two long laps for the 10km option – a unique run in one of the most beautiful areas of the UAE.
