🏁 Course Details

The Whitefish Turkey Trot is now in downtown Whitefish! The 3.1 mile course will start and end outside of the O'Shaughnessy Center. Participants will follow the bike path through the tunnel under Baker Ave all the way to Oregon Ave/Lakeside Blvd alongside Whitefish Lake. Trotters will then take Skyles Pl into residential Whitefish, turn right onto Iowa Ave, right onto Waverly Pl, left on Dakota Ave, and left on Edgewood Pl before jumping back on the bike path and taking it all the way back to the finish arch outside of the O'Shaughnessy Center.

Note: This route is tentative and subject to changes. The course will be marked and volunteer course marshals will help direct participants! (YOU can volunteer to be a course marshal by registering HERE — bring a friend and cheer on the trotters!)
