About the race

The Lakes TrailFest is a trail running event held at Matanuska Lakes State Recreation Area in Palmer, Alaska. It offers a variety of race distances to accommodate all ages and skill levels, including a Kids Run, 5K, 10K, 25K, and 50K. The courses feature marked trails with directional signs and colored flags, traversing often wet and slick single-track and grassy paths with natural obstacles like roots and fallen trees.

Aid stations support longer distances, while runners must carry their own water. The event fosters a family-friendly atmosphere encouraging participation from beginners to seasoned trail runners, with finisher awards and strict race rules to ensure safety and sportsmanship.
