When Covid started effecting our traditional trail event locations, meaning we had to cancel as they were on public property our search of new trails on private property resulted in finding these amazing trails in Walworth and Kenosha Counties.
Lake Geneva Ziplines & Adventures, is home to several of our trail events and a personal favorite. The single track trails winding throughout the towering trees with evaluation changes that will challenge everyone! For just $5.00 or a small yearly fee, these trails are yours! Roughly 10 miles of trails.
SENO Conservancy, describing these trails like taking a trip to six different places all with a few miles on the over 5 miles of trails. Hills, pines, oaks, prairie, quiet, single track, double wide and is welcoming everyone. We now host several event here and has become a favorite location for myself and others.
Alpine Valley Ski & Golf Resort and home to the some crazy fun and difficult single track mountain trails. I would consider these trails the toughest 8 miles of trails in SE WI, if you need a little more then run up and down a few of the ski slopes to get the quads burning a little more! These trails would be my favorite trails in Walworth County. Run on them for the day for 42 or a season pass is $20. Yes, we have several events there each year!
KD County Park -- Twin Lakes, WI
This is home to the Hills Are Alive Trail Run & CaniCross, Trails Are Alive Night Adventure, Schneeflocke Trail Adventure. This hill-n-dale course is as challenging at times as it is scenic. I most enjoy running there in the summer as I can finish my run with a swim in the crystal clear lake within the park.
