Description
Dare to dash through the deepening dusk in this mesmerizing twilight adventure. Welcome to the "Race to Thee, Annabel Lee" - where shadows lengthen and spirits soar as day surrenders to darkness.
Wind your way through Ocala's meandering trails as the sun sets and shadows dance among the Spanish moss. This unique twilight-to-darkness race captures the haunting essence of Poe's timeless tale of devotion. As darkness descends, your path will be illuminated by carefully placed gothic lanterns, creating an atmospheric journey through the gathering night.
