    Hello, we are staying at the new cabins at Fort Wilderness campground in November. I am currently training for the February Disney Marathon and wondering where the closest fitness center I have access to is located? Thank you.

    Hello Sheila,

    Welcome back to planDisney! It's so nice to chat with a fellow Disney Vacation Club Member about a Walt Disney World Vacation and it looks like yours is just around the corner! I'm happy to help with your question about a fitness center so let's hop to it. 

    How exciting you'll be checking in to The Cabins at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort - I can't wait for my family's first stay there! The resort is surrounded by nature with adventure in mind. There are bike trails, horseback riding, archery lessons or kayaking and canoeing for watersport enthusiasts. While there are many spaces for being active outdoors, unfortunately, The Cabins at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort do not have a dedicated fitness center. However, the resort features a dedicated 3.1-mile jogging trail that winds through the scenic backcountry. 

    I'm sorry this isn't the answer you were hoping to hear, Sheila but I hope you take advantage of the shaded trails for your training. You may even spot wildlife on your run, the last time I stayed at the Cabins, we saw a family of deer! I wish you the best of luck with your training for the runDisney event in February. If you have any other DVC or planning questions, we at planDisney are happy to assist!

    See ya real soon, 
    Candace
