Walk Wisconsin

Walk Wisconsin is the premier walking event in the Midwest!

This event takes place on the 1st Saturday in June, which is also National Trails day. This is a non-competitive event, encouraging walkers of all ages and ability levels. The full, 1/2 and 1/4 marathon events utilize the scenic Green Circle Trail which passes the Wisconsin River, Plover River, several lakes, and unique ecosystems. The trail base for all routes include a combination of wood chips, crushed granite, road surface and wood boardwalk.
