Corolla is experiencing some blustery nor'easter weather. But not to worry, the Banker horses instinctively know to move to higher ground and seek shelter under the sturdy trees in our maritime forests. They will often huddle together with their backs to the wind to brace against the gusts. #buttstothewind

Stay safe n dry, y'all.

"Outstanding tour with Ezra. His knowledge of reserve, wild banker horses and surrounding areas was excellent. His navigation thru dunes to find the horses was incredible while having a high regard for the surrounding environment. Would highly recommend this tour."

Thanks, Chrvon, for this awesome review. Ezra is like a double agent for us--he not only drives our modified humvees like an absolute rockstar, he keeps them purring in tip-top top shape as one of our lot champions.

Thanks for allowing us to be part of your treasured OBX memories.

We’re deeply sorry to share that the OBX Marathon Weekend (Fun Run, 5k, 8k, Half Marathon, Marathon, and Expo) November 8–9 2025 has been canceled due to the ongoing government shutdown. Unfortunately, we do not have access to the necessary government officials required on site or for road closures; as well as crowd control to ensure a safe event. We know this is incredibly disappointing — for you, for our volunteers, and for our community who look forward to welcoming runners each fall. Thank you sincerely for registering and for your continued support of Outer Banks Sporting Events.

The Corolla Wild Horse Fund, a 501 (c) 3 nonprofit, raises approximately 85% of its budget through donations, special events, memberships, sponsorships, grants, and mission-related merchandise sales, all without federal or state funding. Every dollar donated helps further our mission to protect and conserve the Banker horses living on the northern Outer Banks. Contributions are tax deductible in accordance with IRS regulations.
