About the race
The Orbion x Copper Harbor Trails Fest is the 33rd annual, three day Labor Day Weekend event in Copper Harbor, Michigan, hosted by the Copper Harbor Trails Club. The festival brings together mountain bike racing, trail running, live music, and on-site drinks over multiple days. It is described as an all ages event with programs for juniors and adults.
Racing disciplines at the festival include cross-country (long and medium), downhill, and enduro, plus a 10K trail run and junior mountain bike races. Participant guides are provided for the long and medium XC courses, the 10K trail run, the downhill event, and the enduro. Awards and season style recognitions are part of the event structure: the King and Queen of the Mountain title is open to racers who enter the Expert Enduro, Long XC, and Downhill events with ranks determined by combined finishing places; the Beast Mode award is given to one man and one woman who complete the Expert Enduro, Long XC, Downhill, and the 10K Trail Run.
The festival notes live music and evening activities at the community park and indicates registration opens in spring 2027 for the September 3 to 5, 2027 event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
