Event overview

The Fire Tower Trail Races take place on October 3, 2026, at St. Croix State Park in Minnesota. Registration opens March 1, 2026. The course passes through forests, along rivers, and across prairie in the Kettle River valley. The organizers describe the route as a flat course overall. Runners in the 50K and 100K distances also climb to the top of a historic fire tower during the run; the 100K includes that climb twice. A vertigo option is available for participants who cannot climb the tower. The event offers generous cut offs, food, and camping. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
