For runners in all three races, the event will follow an out-and-back route that starts and finishes just off Bollinger Canyon Road, near the park’s Little Hills Picnic Ranch and Las Trampas Stables areas.
From there, runners in the half marathon make what is roughly a figure-8 style pair of loops through the park’s trails, heading first through the northern sections of the Las Trampas Wilderness along the Calaveras Ridge trail, the Madrone trail and the Sulphur Springs trail.
Once runners make it back nearly all the way to the starting line, near the Bollinger Creek, the race route then crosses over the path near the start and then heads through the southern section of Las Trampas.
Runners next head uphill along the Rocky Ridge trail toward the peak where they’ll be able to take in magnificent views of the mountains all around, and then head back northward and down along the Elderberry trail in toward the finish line.
