Join us for Dedham Trails Day Festival and 5K Trail Run/Walk and Sprint & Splash on Sunday, August 19th, 10am-2pm at the Dolan Center.

About the Event

The races kickoff at 10am at NewBridge on the Charles, 5000 Great Meadow Road, Dedham and takes you through NewBridge on the Charles Campus, then onto NewBridge’s well-manicured stone dust trails and into the more rugged, root laid trails of Whitcomb Woods and the Dolan Center Trails where Sprint & Splash runners will stay to the left to board kayaks supplied by L.L. Bean and the Town of Dedham for the 1 mile paddle on the Charles River. The paddle takes you along the scenic Charles River ½ mile out where L.L. Bean staff will be positioned to direct paddlers to turn around and then a ½ mile back to the Dolan Center launch.

The Town of Dedham and L.L. Bean will supply kayaks for those that sign up for the Sprint & Splash. Quantities are limited so register early at active.com!

After the race join the festival and enjoy food, live music, face painting, games and demos of kayaks, SUP's and fly casting with L.L. Bean. Plus dozens of environmental, health and active wear vendors!
