Logo Snowmelt5K

Join Downtown Holland and Holland Parks & Recreation for a 5K through beautiful Downtown Holland.

The entire route will take advantage of Holland’s unique snowmelt system, allowing runners & walkers to enjoy an obstacle and hazard-free course, even in the middle of winter. Racers will receive a finisher medal. This 5K run/walk is part of Downtown Holland’s annual Holland on Ice festival, so racers can stick around Downtown Holland all weekend to take in the live ice carving, great sales, and winter themed food & drink specials at local restaurants. The Kids’ Mini Melt will also take place, giving even the youngest runners a chance to participate in all the fun.
