Comments/ Race Info:

Join us for a run through one of the most beautiful areas of Michigan! The Port Oneida Barn to Barn Trail Run is a 5K run/walk on the Bayview Trail through the beautiful scenery of Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore – a National Park just 30 miles west of Traverse City. (The first run in SBDNL!]

Runners are offered a unique tour of the Port Oneida Rural Historic District which is “one of the most prized historic landscapes in the country”! The course meanders through the pastoral landscape of farmsteads from the late 1800s nestled among the hills, and along the shores of Lake Michigan.

Proceeds benefit Preserve Historic Sleeping Bear, a nonprofit partner of the Park dedicated to saving the historic structures and landscapes in Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore.
