The 7K Trail Run, starting and finishing at the Orchard Shores Picnic Area, offers a course designed to delight both seasoned trail runners and newcomers alike, known for being flowy, fast, and fun.

The 7K course, a scenic lollipop loop, navigates wide and stable paths, making it accessible for those new to trail running while allowing speedsters to find their pace.
