The Hocking Hills Primal Trek is the ultimate test of human vs. nature. It is a 5k run through forest, mud, mountain and river and include a multitude of natural and man-made obstacles to overcome.
While 5k doesn’t sound like a lot, it is when you’re constantly having to climb, scramble, swim, wade and think yourself over obstacles that have been fiendishly devised to offer as much of a challenge as possible while still being able to be overcome. The guys who run Hocking Hills Primal Trek have plenty of experience in managing these events and it shows!
Highlights of the Hocking Hills Primal Trek include ziplining over water, running through some of the most beautiful scenery in the country and wading across one of the largest mud pits known to man. If that wasn’t enough, the terrain is particularly rugged and challenging on its own, without the intervention of the organizers.
