Gladwin County River Race of Two Cities Canoe Marathon

🏞️ Race Overview

This 12.5-mile canoe marathon on the Cedar River is more than just a race, it’s a tribute to the community’s dedication to our natural resources and outdoor recreation. Until recently, this stretch of the Cedar was unnavigable due to downed trees and debris obstructing the waterway. The community and local partners have since rallied with the Gladwin Conservation District to transform the Cedar River into a navigable waterway that balances recreation with ecological health.
