The event travels 3.1 miles (5K) and is designed to take runners through the picturesque vineyard. Participants receive an up-close tour of the wide variety of grapes Duck Walk has planted. The course is flat, fast, and takes place on mixed terrain. When you are finished, you’ll recuperate with crackers and cheese found in the refreshment area, coupled with delicious wine samples (of course!) in our exclusive event wine glasses.
