Glacier Hills Ultra
The Newton Hills Ultra gives runners the chance to take the next step as it provides race distances of 20 km, 30 km, and 50 km. Join us for a great run through Newton Hills State Park (near Canton, SD), one of the jewels of SD state parks.
The course consists of a 10km loop through the Newton Hills trail system. Each race is comprised of the number of loops needed to reach the chosen distance (i.e. 2, 3, or 5 loops). While South Dakota is generally known for its lack of topography,the Newton Hills trails are anything but flat.
