The Ravine Trail Run takes place on cross-country ski trails with several hills, making it moderately challenging. The trail is a 3.2-mile loop, wide enough for passing and walking, featuring hills, valleys, shaded tree areas, and sunny prairie sections. The terrain includes grass, mud, packed dirt, and rocky sections in washout areas. The 5k race consists of one loop, while the 10k race includes two loops. Course and Location: The race starts at the Ravine Landing building next to the parking lot at the end of Ravine Road, following the Green and Red trail loops. These will be marked with ACR arrows, but be aware of many offshoots and the fact that trails are open to the public. We do our best with signage.
