Palisades Dock-to-Dock Turkey Trot
About this race
Work up an appetite along the Hudson this Thanksgiving morning!
Join us at the foot of the cliffs for the Palisades Dock-to-Dock Turkey Trot, presented by the Palisades Interstate Park Commission and Palisades Parks Conservancy
This untimed 5K fun run follows the river from Ross Dock to Englewood and back, with the towering Palisades on one side and sweeping river views on the other. It’s the perfect way to stretch your legs and soak in the crisp November air before the festivities begin.
Every trotter takes home a cozy knit beanie to keep warm on the way to the feast, and the top 5 male and top 5 female finishers will be recognized at the finish.
Bring the whole flock: family, friends, and neighbors are all welcome, whether you’re racing for a podium spot or just strolling for the stuffing.
Only 200 spots are available, so gobble yours up before they’re gone!
