Our Way of Capping Off the Ski Season with Some Fun!
At Minocqua Winter Park on February 28, 2026
Costumes are encouraged for all racers in any of the events. Choose between skate or classic techniques and pick how many loops you’d like to complete! This year’s format features a one-loop 6km race or a two-loop 12km race. This is a great race for both the experienced skier and for those who want to dip their toes in the ski racing world. Join us for a day of fun!
Stick Around For The Beat The Bunny 2k
This fan-favorite youth ski race starts at 1pm. Perfect for kids! Can the kiddos beat the bunnies around Base Loop this year? Or will those furry fiends finally win?

Bib Pick Up
Bib pick up will be available at the Chalet; times to be determined.

Route Description
The Loopy Loppet features a selection of trails that historically hold snow very well late in the season: Base Loop, Tornado Alley, Survivor, and Nose Dive Alley.
There will be one aid station located at the Chalet which will offer bananas, oranges, water, and gatorade. The aid station will also double as a recovery table with chocolate milk. Stop by after your race for a drink or bite.
