Fausett Farms Sunflower 5k

The Fausett Farms Sunflower 5K, held in Dawsonville, Georgia, offers a scenic running experience through vast sunflower fields in the foothills of Dawson County. Scheduled for October 11, 2025, the event features a 5K race with a challenging climb at the halfway point and a 1-mile fun run designed for kids, both winding through vibrant sunflower landscapes with some uneven terrain. Participants can enjoy a family-friendly atmosphere, post-race snacks, and a finisher gift.

The event encourages exploration of the picturesque sunflower fields, a popular Instagram spot, and nearby attractions like Burt's Pumpkin Farm and Amicalola Falls State Park. Leashed pets are welcome on-site but not in the race. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
