Race Information
Based on the classic 1980s computer game, The Annual Oregon Trail® Game is ready for you to make some decisions! Ford the river or float it? Stop to hunt or keep moving to make it to the Oregon Territory before winter falls? The Oregon Trail® Game has a simple premise—take on the persona of a pioneer in 1848 and get your covered wagon from Missouri to Oregon City without breaking a wagon wheel or losing a relative to dysentery. Now the game has been reincarnated in the form of a 5k race.
