Don't Get Lost in the Woods - Walk or Run Race
SATURDAY - SEPTEMBER 11, 2021
All skill levels welcome! Don't worry, you won't actually get lost (unless of course you don't follow the signs or you jump v-boards)!
The courses are set on the trails of the Wapiti Nordic XCountry Ski Centre - located in beautiful Grande Prairie, AB - South on Hwy 40 and Twp Rd 704A). Each course is set on dirt, sand, and forest trails and encompasses a combination of both challenging and rolling hills. The course is suitable for spikes or flats.
All distances are complete loops (meaning ... you do NOT run laps of the same loop)! We are so lucky to have over 35km of trails so close to GP.
