Mark your calendars for the 13th Annual Moore Mtn Trail Runs on Saturday, September 16th! This event, featuring 5k, 1/2 Marathon, and 30k races, takes place in the heart of Klamath Falls, offering a hidden gem for trail running enthusiasts. More than 90% of the courses wind through high-quality single tracks, treating participants to sweeping views of Upper Klamath Lake and Mt. Shasta. The 5k is both fun and technically challenging with minimal elevation gain, providing a perfect introduction to trail running.
Enjoy the ideal trail running conditions with typical September morning temperatures around 50 degrees in Klamath Falls, though the high desert weather might bring surprises. Aid stations strategically located along the 1/2 Marathon and 30k routes offer support at crucial points, stocked with supplies such as chips, soda, and GU Roctane Energy Drink Mix.
Organized by the non-profit Linkville Lopers, this event is entirely volunteer-driven, with 100% of the profits staying within the community. The Linkville Lopers consistently support local initiatives such as the Klamath Trails Alliance, Friends of Moore Park, and the City of Klamath Falls, aiming to enhance outdoor recreation. The entry fees are kept low to ensure accessibility for all participants, focusing on fostering togetherness and community rather than lavish race swag.
