From Lighthouse Landing, runners take the road to the Kentucky Lake Scenic Drive trailhead and run four laps of the 11.3-mile Canal Loop. After the fourth lap they add a 0.62-mile out-and-back on the scenic drive before returning to Grand Rivers.
The loop is mostly packed dirt single-track with views of both lakes and larger hills on the Kentucky Lake side.
