Jointly organized by the Wildlife Reserves Singapore and Pink Apple Pte Ltd, the Safari Zoo Run aims to give runners from all walks of life a unique and memorable experience! Part of the proceeds from this event will also go towards the care of endangered animals at the Night Safari and Singapore Zoo.

Here again for the fourth year, the Singapore Zoo and Night Safari will be opening their doors for all avid runners to enjoy the sights of our wildlife exhibits while keeping up with a healthy lifestyle through the run in the parks. Safari Zoo Run 2012 will start in the morning instead of the late afternoon as in previous years.

Not to forget, the Safari Zoo Run also serves as an event to mark the death anniversary of our late tourism icon, Ah Meng. Put on your running shoes and join us for a fabulous day!
