Winter Trail Fest West
Join us on Saturday, February 20, 2027, at Yankee Springs Recreation Area in Middleville, MI for the Winter Trail Fest West Half Marathon and 5 Mile trail race. This winter race is known for its unpredictable conditions—snow, slush, ice, or mud—and the famous river crossing that takes “winter trail challenge” to another level.
The Half Marathon course features rolling hills and rugged singletrack, while the 5 Mile distance offers a fast, fun taste of winter racing. Both distances welcome runners and ruckers, making it one of Michigan’s few winter trail races to feature a dedicated ruck division.
