Two Harbors Trail Alliance Trail Turkey Trot
The Two Harbors Trail Alliance Trail Turkey Trot is a donation-based trail event on November 26, 2026 at the Erkki Harju Ski Trails on Fairgrounds Road in Two Harbors, Minnesota. The event offers short trail distances for runners and walkers and welcomes families and leashed dogs. Costumes are allowed.
Distances offered:
- 1K run or walk
- 3K run or walk
- 5K run or walk
Day-of walk-up registration is welcome; online registration opens in October and closes the day before the event. Organizers request that participants who are already registered arrive about 20 minutes before their race to check in.
Aid is available on course at the main ski trail parking lot; this location serves as the 3K turnaround and a stop on the 5K loop. Check-in, the start and finish, and the post-race gathering are at the trailhead. Parking is in the large lot across from the Lake County Fairgrounds on Fairgrounds Road.
Post-race offerings include hot apple cider, coffee, snacks, and a bonfire. Awards are given to first-place female and male finishers in each distance and for best costume; each award and the costume prize is a whole pie from Betty's Pies. Registration includes one raffle ticket for prizes donated by local sponsors; all proceeds benefit the Two Harbors Trail Alliance. Winners must be present to collect awards or raffle prizes.
