Vail Kid's Adventure RaceAugust 11, 2012 - February 12, 2012

Vail’s signature, kid’s-only race will return for two days this summer pitting more than 100 teams of two, ages six to 12, against each other on an obstacle course like no other in Vail Village and on Vail Mountain. In its third year, the KEEN Vail Kids Adventure Race offers children an opportunity to work together to navigate an adventure course including hiking, mountain biking and zip lining on Vail Mountain; tubing down the Gore Creek; plus archery, an underground river crossing and balancing on a slack line over a mud pit. The highlight of the race is Vail’s-own giant Slope-n-Slide, a 100-foot version of a slip-n-slide that takes participants down the front side of Vail Mountain for a fun and wild ride. During the race, parents aren’t allowed to help the teams as they use a kid-friendly map to orientate themselves around the course. The past two summer’s races have sold out and it’s anticipated to be another packed event for the younger ones.
