The Howletts Gorilla 5K

This year, The Aspinall Foundation is celebrating it's 40th birthday, with this year's race theme being gorillas. The Aspinall Foundation's pioneering work with gorillas has seen more than 75 animals rehabilitated and returned to the wild, in excess of 40 wild births and a 97% reduction in the orphan gorilla trade in Congo! Set where The Aspinall Foundation was founded by the late John Aspinall, 2024's Howletts Gorilla 5K will take you through 90 stunning acres of ancient parkland, where you will be cheered on (or maybe just watched) by more than 45 species of rare and endangered animals including giant anteaters, gorillas, tigers and lions. The event will start before the park opens its gates to the public, giving you an exclusive glimpse behind the scenes. Better still, your entry fee includes full access to the park after the event for runners. Why not bring your whole troop along to explore a world of conservation after you set your best 5K time ever and receive your unique Gorilla medal!
