Marquette Trail 50

August 16, 2024 - August 17, 2024

The Marquette Trail 50 consists of a 50-kilometer and 50-mile event held on Saturday, starting and finishing from the NTN Forestville Trailhead.

The course is mostly single-track, climbing the scenic 4 peaks around Harlow Lake and Little Presque Isle: Sugarloaf, Top-of-the-World, Bareback, and Hogback.  All the peaks have views of Lake Superior and portions of the course skirt the Lake Superior shoreline. Much of the trail consists of moderate to difficult terrain, with significant climbs and technical areas.  According to Ultrarunning Magazine, the course is rated 3 out of 5 for Terrain (“Hilly”), and 4 out of 5 for Surface (“Trail with substantial rocks, roots and/or ruts”).

To kick off the weekend, the NMU Catch the Cat 5K and a 1-mile kids race are hosted at Forestville Trailhead on Friday evening.
