The first event will be held on the NSW North Coast in the Coopernook State Forest, only 2 hours from Newcastle on Sunday 28 August. In a partnership with Forestry NSW, dog lovers can run or walk either a 4km or 8km forest course that will get them and their dogs out into the great outdoors exploring.
Both courses offer stunning landscapes set amongst the lush eucalypt forest and will appeal to both the novice and more experienced trail explorer.
“Entrants will experience the freedom of a forest trail away from the usual suburban dog-friendly haunts and have a great day with other pooch lovers.” explained Danielle Donnelly, one of the event's creators. “As well as a chance to run wild there will be displays, games, stalls, food and entertainment creating the perfect event for humans and hounds”.
The event team combines the adventure event expertise of Fully Rad Adventures, Danielle Donnelly and Richard Old, with local vets from the Sweet Pea Animal Rescue, Rob and Sam, and Richard and Danielle’s dogs, Molly the Golden Retriever and Jack the Border Collie.
When: Sunday 28th August
Where: Coopernook State Forest (2 hours from Newcastle).
Forest Rd, off the Pacific Highway between Taree and Kew
