Join us for Trail Days — a celebration of community, nature, and the growing vision for the Minnesota Driftless Hiking Trail! 🌿

Come explore a recently designated section of the proposed trail with a self-guided or interpretive hike, enjoy outdoor crafts and activities, and enter to win raffle prizes from local and outdoor brands. It’s a fun, easygoing day for hikers, families, and anyone who loves the Driftless Area.

Trail Days is also a great chance to learn more about the Minnesota Driftless Hiking Trail project, share your ideas, and connect with the volunteers and partners helping bring this new long-distance trail to life. We’ll host our first ever annual meeting in the middle of trail days – at 12:45 PM – for those who are interested in learning more directly from those involved in building this trail!

What to Expect:
🥾 Self-guided hikes on recently designated MDHT route
🥾 Interpretive hike with Paint & Hike
🎟 Raffle prizes from outdoor + local companies
🎨 Outdoor crafts + activities for all ages
💬 Opportunities to share feedback and learn about the trail project

The event is free and open to everyone, thanks to the generous support of our sponsors — Garage Grown Gear, Abode Outside, Storm Sporting Events, and Smooth Toe!

Let’s celebrate the beauty of the Driftless region and imagine what’s possible together. We’ll see you on the trail! 💚
