Trick or Trail 5k & 1 Mile 2026

The Trick or Trail 5k & 1 Mile is a Halloween-themed run and walk in Hendersonville, offering both a 5K and a one-mile option. Presented by Aetna, the event begins and ends in the city’s Historic 7th Avenue District and is in its twelfth year. Costumes are encouraged, making the field a mix of road racers and a Halloween parade. The route guides participants through the Historic 7th Avenue District before finishing near the Fall Festival. Each participant receives a race shirt and a finisher medal. The event is suited for families, casual walkers, first-timers, and those seeking a low-pressure race with a costume-friendly atmosphere.
