You can choose to hike or run any of Avalonia's trails or ride your bike to connect the preserves (road bike routes will be provided.)

Avalonia has over 30 preserves with trails and there is a trail for every ability level and every age.

Once you’re registered, you will receive a personal fundraising page that you can send to your friends and family asking for support. We will have prizes for most mileage, most elevation, and fastest time around our challenging 5.5 mile Blue Trail at the TriTown Forest Preserve. All registration fees and donations are tax-deductible and support the Avalonia Land Conservancy. Please register today to help save the land you love!
