Port Oneida Run

Join us for the 12th Annual Port Oneida Run! ALL proceeds support National Park Partner Preserve Historic Sleeping Bear.
 
There is nothing like these courses. This is the only run that winds  through the beautiful scenery of Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore’s Port Oneida Rural Historic District  – home of Pyramid Point, a favorite of residents and visitors – 3 miles north of Glen Arbor. With its historic farms and barns, Port Oneida is hailed as “one of the most prized historic landscapes in the country”!  Afterwards, it is recommended you take a swim in some gorgeous beaches down Port Oneida Road.
