Cooking Lake-Blackfoot Provincial Recreation Area51523 Range Road 200, Sherwood Park AB, Canada

Canada's trail champs ran here. Now it's your turn.

From its 2002 debut to hosting the 2014 Canadian 100K Trail Championship, Blackfoot Ultra has shaped Alberta's trail running community for over two decades. Rolling grass trails, lakeside views, and aid stations competing for bragging rights make every loop worth the ache.


Highlights

  • A beloved springtime tradition through the Cooking Lake–Blackfoot backcountry

  • Past host of Canadian 50K, 50-mile, and 100K Trail Championships.

  • Spot moose, cougars, bears, beavers, and elk on course.

  • Clockwise even years, counterclockwise odd — always a fresh challenge.

  • Grass-covered hills with lake views east of Edmonton.
