The Sinks Canyon Trail Races start and finish in beautiful Sinks Canyon, the corridor to Wyoming’s Wind River Mountains.

You can expect scenery that includes wildflower heaven, snow and ice-covered peaks, deep canyons, enormous views, and fun trails.

These runs are hosted by the Lander Running Club, an inclusive, community-based organization for and by runners. Join us for a fun, and challenging, day of running some of the West’s premier trails.
