Dirt Days Trail Series - French Park Creek Crossings

Cincinnati, United States • 21 Jun 2026

Event Overview

The Dirt Days Trail Series - French Park Creek Crossings is a trail running event held at French Park in Cincinnati, Ohio. This race is the fourth leg of the multi-event Dirt Days Trail Series. The course is approximately 3.6 miles long and utilizes the various natural landscapes of this former farm property.

Course Details

The route begins at the top of a hill and descends into a meadow, passing through areas of tall grass. Participants run the perimeter of the park before moving into the interior sections. A primary feature of the course is a creek that runs through the property. The path follows the water and requires several crossings. Runners may choose to cross using stepping stones, log bridges, or by running directly through the water. After the creek sections, the trail rises gradually to return to the shelter and meadow area where the run started.
