2016 Head for the Hills Patoka Lake Triathlon:
Head for the hills and race for the raptors. All proceeds from this event will support Patoka's non-releasable birds of prey; a bald eagle, eastern screech owl and red-tailed hawk. With your help, we are able to support the lives of these birds of prey used for educational programming.
Course Information:
Start with a 0.28 mile open water swim at the beach.
Then bike 12.8 miles on our 'hillacious' open road course through the State Park. Start this leg of the course by climbing the infamous 'beach hill' and race along our winding course through beautiful countryside, along the woods and back down beach hill.
Finish with a 3.1 mile run along our hilly bike trail that will lead runners into the woods, along lakeshores and back down beach hill to finish.
Directions:
Our address is 3084 N. Dillard Rd. Birdseye, IN 47513. The park is physically located in Wickliffe, IN. If you follow GPS and MapQuest directions it will lead you to the property gate. From the gatehouse the beach will be at the second road on the left.
Other Info:
There is a gate fee of $7/vehicle in state and $9/vehicle out of state for those wishing to attend. This fee is waived for all athletes participating in the race.
Food and refreshments will be provided for athletes as they finish the race. A concession stand will be open for spectators.
Showers are available onsite at the beach house.
Campgrounds are located in the park for your convenience. There are many local cabins nearby and hotels in French Lick and Jasper to choose from for overnight guests.
Bring the entire family and enjoy our 6 mile paved bike trail, fitness trail, hiking trails, 18-hole disc golf course, archery range, 8,880 acres of water for boating, water skiing and much more!
