The Forkland Festival Fox and Hound 4K is a short trail race in Gravel Switch, Kentucky, held during the Forkland Festival. Participants cover 4 kilometers through the Forkland Community; the hills and rougher footing make the effort feel closer to a flat 5K.
The course begins with a quarter-mile climb, then proceeds through knobs, open meadows, countryside, and woodland trails, finishing on a downhill stretch. Entry includes a race T-shirt and a ticket to the festival pancake breakfast, contributing to the event's small-community festival atmosphere rather than a stand-alone road race feel.
