Description
Join us on the private trails of Camp Manatoc, which are normally closed to the public – don't miss this opportunity to explore them. Looking for an extra challenge? Participate in the Leave No Trace Half Marathon (9:00 AM start time) AND the Minnehaha 5k (8:00 AM start time). Hikers welcome for all events.
Course
This mostly single-track course is as beautiful as it is difficult. You'll be led through a white pine grove, tons of quick turns, plenty of hills, and past Minnehaha Falls. Just when you've had enough, you'll face a final hill for your sprint to the finish line! Click here to view the Leave No Trace and Minnehaha course maps.
