Embark on a captivating journey through the verdant landscapes of Bainbridge Island at the Bainbridge Island Parks and Trails Foundation Trillium Trail Run on Saturday, May 9, 2026. This beloved spring event, kicking off from Battle Point Park, invites runners and walkers of all ages and abilities to choose from a scenic 10K, 5K, or a lively 1-Mile Kids Fun Run. The courses promise a delightful challenge as they wind along the picturesque Forest to Sky Trail, traverse the Grand Forest among towering firs, and meander over a scenic Hilltop meadow. The 10K and 5K courses feature approximately 500 feet of elevation gain, offering a satisfying trail experience.

Runners consistently praise the Trillium Trail Run for its fantastic course and community atmosphere, with many eagerly anticipating it all year. Beyond the exhilarating run, participants can enjoy post-race festivities, including music, refreshments, and finisher snacks, making it a perfect outing for families. Typical race day conditions in early May on Bainbridge Island are ideal for trail running, with comfortable highs around 66F and lows near 48F, and only a 9% chance of precipitation.

What truly sets this race apart is its dedication to local conservation: all proceeds directly support the Bainbridge Island Parks and Trails Foundation's "Trails Connect Bainbridge Island" campaign, funding the acquisition, construction, and maintenance of new trails across the island. By participating, you not only challenge yourself but also contribute to enhancing the island's cherished network of natural pathways. Packet pickup and day-of-race registration will be available at the Battle Point Park picnic shelter, with ample free parking.
