About the race

Afton Trail Run is a trail running event held at Afton State Park in Minnesota that features two measured race distances on park trails. The organizers list the 2027 race date as tentatively Saturday July 3, following the event's history of occurring on the first Saturday in July. Information published for the 2026 race is noted as largely applicable to 2027 but may change; final details for 2027 were expected to be published in late fall or early winter 2026.

Registration details published for 2026 show open and close dates, field limits, entry fees, and the registration platform. Registration for the 2026 event opened January 1, 2026 and closed June 25, 2026 or when fields were full, with registration hosted through UltraSignup. The 2026 field limits and entry fees were listed as: 50 km field limit 350 runners with an entry fee of $115, and 25 km field limit 625 runners with an entry fee of $95. The event does not keep a waiting list; extra spots are allocated up front so withdrawals do not create openings.

The event policy states there are no refunds, transfers, or distance switches; the Race Director may modify or cancel the race for safety, weather, public health, air quality, trail condition or other public safety concerns and entry fees will not be refunded in those cases. Registration fee assistance options and a low-cost weeknight trail series are also mentioned as available to reduce financial barriers.
