Wallace Huckleberry Festival and 5K
The Wallace Huckleberry Festival 5K Fun Run begins in downtown Wallace and travels up Placer Creek on a fully paved course. The race is an out and back, beginning and ending at the Wallace Elks Club. All ages and abilities are welcome, including kids in strollers, dogs on leashes, walkers, joggers, and hard-core racers! We award 1st and 2nd place medals for overall male and female finishers as well as top finishing male and female in each age group. There will be awards for best human costume and best dog costume...so dress up and have fun! After the race, enjoy live music, street vendors, shops and restaurants in Historic Downtown Wallace. Make a weekend of it and stay in one of Wallace’s many hotels or vacation rentals.
