What is the Scribbly Gums Conservation Park Run?

How Can You Get Involved?
Joining the Scribbly Gums Conservation Park Run is easy and free! Simply register before your first visit, and don’t forget to bring a scannable copy of your barcode. This will ensure you receive an accurate time for your run.
But what if running isn’t your thing? Fear not! The parkrun is entirely organised by volunteers, and they need your help.

No experience is necessary, and you can even combine volunteering with walking or running.
