Wolfman Triathlon and Trail Runs
The Wolfman Triathlon and Trail Runs takes place on Saturday, September 12, 2026, at the Gardner Dam Adventure Base in White Lake, Wisconsin. The event combines an off-road, down-river triathlon with separate trail running races and is described as one of Wisconsin’s original off-road triathlons held in the Northwoods.
The triathlon comprises three sequential segments: a whitewater paddle, a technical mountain bike section, and a rugged trail run. The paddle launches on a Class II section of the Wolf River north of Langlade and finishes at the DNR landing in Langlade. The bike route leaves Highway 64 to enter the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest and follows the Nicolet Roche singletrack network toward the Gardner Dam Adventure Base. The run begins with a bridge crossing over the Wolf River and continues on rugged trails.
Event distances and options include:
- 3 miles whitewater paddle
- 13 miles technical mountain bike
- 3.75 miles rugged trail run
- 5K Wolfman Heavy 5K Sheena's Run
- 10K Wolfman Heavy 10K
