The Courses

Both courses travel through the forested landscape surrounding the lodge. Runners should expect an unpaved, rolling route on forest roads and trails. The 5K has about 360 feet of elevation gain and the 10K 685 feet. Course markings will help navigate the route. A water station will be available near the halfway point of the 10K route.

This is a fun run to welcome runners of all experience levels. Whether you choose the 5K or 10K, come prepared for fresh mountain air, nature, and a friendly community atmosphere.
