City of Franklin Trick or Trot 5K Course Map

This 3.1 mile course begins and ends on Main Street between 2nd & 3rd Avenue in historic downtown Franklin. The route continues to the Post Office, turning left onto Jackson Street, then right onto High Street. Runners continue past the old railroad tracks and make a right turn into Poplar Springs Cemetery, following the public access road behind the cemetery and back onto High Street. A quick run through a residential area brings runners to Bon Secours - Southampton Medical Center, where the course turns around at the East Pavilion Nursing Home and heads back in reverse order. The course weaves back through the opposite side of Poplar Springs Cemetery, through High Street to Jackson Street, with a finish from the Post Office back to the Start/Finish Line at Main Street.
This course has mixed terrain with the majority on paved roads and portions on grass and gravel paths through the cemetery. Total elevation is 62 feet.
