Fire Tower Trail Races
The Fire Tower Trail Races, held in scenic St. Croix State Park near Hinckley, Minnesota, offer a welcoming and accessible trail running experience with four distances: 100K, 50K, 35K, and 11K. The course is flat and takes runners through forests, riversides, and prairies, showcasing the natural beauty of Minnesota’s largest state park.
Unique to the longer races, participants climb the historic fire tower—twice in the 100K—with an optional vertigo-friendly route. The event emphasizes a friendly, old-school atmosphere with generous cutoffs, food, camping, and community spirit, making it ideal for both newcomers and seasoned trail runners.
