Now is the time to sign up to Run for the Trees! Racers can complete their Happy Little (Virtual) 5K anywhere outdoors between April 18-26, 2026. The nine-day window includes Earth Day (April 22) and Arbor Day (April 24).

When registrants select Wisconsin as the state they wish to represent at sign-up, a portion of the $36 registration fee will go toward tree planting and forest health efforts to combat threats from invasive species here in our state parks and forests.

Suggested 5K routes at Wisconsin state parks, forests, trails and recreation areas are available on the DNR’s OutWiGo webpage.

Register by April 1 and get ready to create happy moments on the trail or road!
