Yankee Springs Fall Festival
The Yankee Springs Fall Festival is the ninth annual trail running event held on October 3, 2026, organized by Switchback Endurance at Deep Lake Campground in Middleville, MI. The event uses looped courses on rolling single track originating at the campground.
Distances offered:
- 10K (ish) loop on rolling single track
- 25K loop on rolling single track
- 50K consisting of two laps of the 25K course
Pricing includes a choice of a long sleeve tech shirt or a Switchback Endurance buff. Registrations completed by September 12 are guaranteed a shirt. Registration closes on October 1 at 11:59 PM ET.
Camping is available at Deep Lake Campground near the start and finish. Nearby Gun Lake Campground provides modern facilities including running water and electrical hookups, while Deep Lake is a primitive campground. Campsites can be reserved through the state DNR reservation site.
Course layout information specifies that the shorter distances are loops and that the 50K is composed of two laps of the 25K loop. The description focuses on trail characteristics and event logistics such as included apparel and campground types rather than finish line details.
