ADVENTURE LIKE NO OTHER! Experience nature and wildlife in this exciting 30K, 8 Mile, and 5K trail run that meanders along Lake Apopka's shoreline! Lake Apopka is located 15 miles (24 km) northwest of Orlando. It is the third-largest lake in the state of Florida. The north shore of Lake Apopka is a haven for bird-watching, wildlife photographers, and nature lovers of all ages. The Lake Apopka Loop Trail follows the lake’s edge through the property, covering more than 20 miles and providing hiking and biking opportunities. The Loop Trail is expected to circumnavigate Lake Apopka in the future but is currently an out-and-back trail traversing the northern half of the lake. There are four trailheads for the Loop Trail with restrooms at the Green Mountain, North Shore/McDonald Canal boat ramp, and Magnolia Park trailheads and port-a-lets at the historic pump house. 30K Trail Run: The 30K route is a point-to-point run that starts at the Green Mountain Scenic Overlook and finishes at Magnolia Park. A complimentary pre-race shuttle will take 30K runners to Green Mountain Scenic Overlook. Participants will then run along the Lake Apopka North Shore trail where birds, alligators, and other wildlife call home. The trail is mostly hard-packed limestone with scattered areas of grass, dirt, and gravel. There are a total of four hydration stations along the 30K route with water, various supplies, and snacks. To keep our wildlife friends safe this will be a cupless event. All athletes will need to have a water pack or handheld water bottle with them for this event. 30K Course Map 8 Mile Run: The 8-mile run starts and finishes at Magnolia Park in Apopka.
