Muscatatuck County Park is one of DINO's favorite race venues. It's a hidden gem for outdoor lovers in Indiana. Featuring a trail system that offers amazing views and ample challenge. The race is located near a gorgeous river valley for kayaking, fishing, or just exploring. Following the Trail Run, multiple mountain bike events ranging from the extreme downhill event to the novice friendly short-track take place Saturday afternoon and Sunday. DINO offers two kayak trips with shuttles Saturday evening.
Camping: Designated sites can be reserved online; festival style camping around Shelter 4 is $3 per person per night. Reserve the festival camping HERE or pay cash to DINO staff if not sold out.
