Who would have thought that running and drinking wine would go together perfectly?
But that’s exactly what you get with the Grapest 5km Run at Leura Park Estate.
Participants can choose to circumnavigate dams and vines around the stunning winery course on either a five-kilometre or 10-kilometre run.
For those whose mojo doesn’t include running as a highlight, the one-kilometre Wine Waddle has you covered.
Along the way, all ‘Grapesters’ will get to taste eight wines and ciders at various stations.
The day will conclude with food, live music and more wine.
Leura Park Estate director Lyndsay Sharp said she was delighted the renowned Grapest event was returning to the Bellarine.
“Hosting an event and bringing people together for some fun has taken on a new, very privileged meaning after the year that was,” she said.
“Grapest is a fabulous event combining a little bit of fitness and lots of fun for a diverse age range – running, wining, dining, music, food and friends old and new.
“All at Leura Park Estate are excited about hosting Grapest after a hiatus in 2020 and look forward to welcoming everyone to enjoy our vineyard, wines and hospitality.”
The fun kicks off at 1pm on Saturday, May 1 and will involve staggered starts to ensure a COVIDSafe environment is in place for the run.
