Experience a beautiful fall run/hike/walk at Lapham Peak State Forest while enjoying the wide, well-groomed trails.
The 5K course will tour the middle level of the park. The 10K course follows the outer perimeter trail. The children's Smokey Bear Fun Run course circles the pond at Homestead Hollow. Walk on the 2.5K newly paved accessible trail suitable for wheelchairs or strollers, or take the stairs to the tower and/or visit the popular Butterfly Garden on the way back to Homestead Hollow start area. Enjoy treats, including Smokey Bear Birthday Cake after the run/walk in our picnic shelter. Participants will receive a choice of long sleeve t-shirts and custom-designed Lapham Peak awards for run winners. Colorama is a major fundraiser for Lapham Peak State Forest Improvements.
NEW START TIMES for 2026. The 10k will start at 9:30am, the 5k and walks will start at 9:45am. This allows the adults running to perhaps be finished for then their little cubs to be seen and cheered for while doing Smokey’s run at 11am.
The 10k and 5k are both timed events with podium prizes awarded for overall and age groups. Walkers will be treated to a more casual style of an unrecorded/timed morning.
***Please arrive in time to pick up your number and t-shirt (if ordered) at the Trecker Lodge near Homestead Hollow. Bring your cell phone to the registration table to assure a quick registration process.
Thank you in advance for being a part of our day and the reason this park is the beloved gem it is.
