The Experience
The Central Park Highlights Tour is a non-competitive sight-running tour.
Your fun run will make stops at many of the most iconic Central Park landmarks along the way and talk about the history of each of them. The active sightseeing tours show you Central Park in an up-close and detailed way that’s unlike any other. You’ll quickly learn why we’ve been called “the ultimate NYC fitness experience!”
Vital Information
The Central Park Highlights Tour will involve a good deal of running, so you’ll need to be able to keep up with the group to hear your guide. The pace is typically 9 – 10 minutes per mile. If that seems too fast for you, another option would be to sign up for one of our private runs (where we run at your pace!) or join the Sunrise Yoga Tour where we combine a good brisk walk with stretching and basic yoga poses.
We strongly suggest you do not drive to the meeting location as parking is extremely difficult to find on the streets of NYC and parking lots in midtown are extremely expensive. The best options to reach our meeting spots on time are either taxi, bus, or subway. All of our meeting spots are easily accessible by mass transit.
The Weather
Each of our runs is held rain or shine! If conditions are not to your liking, you can re-schedule to any of our other runs that have space available. In the event of dangerous weather (thunderstorms with lightning, extreme heat or cold, etc.) we will cancel the tour and if there aren’t any other tours that fit your schedule, you will receive a full refund.
Session Length
Your Central Park Highlights Tour will last approximately 1 hour. Sometimes it may finish 5 or 10 minutes earlier or later, depending on the overall pace of the group.
