Overview

Revive your passion for desert running at the Mojave Desert Festival in Las Vegas! This beloved event returned by popular demand, reimagined in 2016 at a new venue to present a fresh challenge. Experience the beauty of the Mojave Desert on a paved and scenic course with rolling terrain.

Starting at an elevation of approximately 4500 feet, participants will traverse high desert vegetation, including Joshua Trees, Pinion-Juniper, Mountain Rose, Sagebrush, and the unexpectedly lush Toiyabe National Forest. The route winds through a captivating canyon within the Spring Mountains N.R.A., offering temperatures about 10 degrees cooler than the Las Vegas Valley.

Course Description

Pure Mojave Desert running at its finest! Come join us on this PAVED and scenic course which covers rolling terrain.
Commencing at an elevation of roughly 4500 feet, runners will experience high desert vegetation to include Joshua Trees, Pinion-Juniper, Mountain Rose, Sagebrush, and a relatively lush Toiyabe National Forest not commonly associated with Las Vegas. The road twists and turns thru the canyon; a true treasure of the Spring Mountains N.R.A. enjoying temperatures ~10 degrees cooler than the Las Vegas Valley.
Still an extreme heat race, expect daytime highs ~95- 100 degrees and overnight lows ~75. On course provisions will help keep you cool!
This running festival offers something for everyone! We offer the chance to run two events without the headache of travel in between! There are many options: Saturday Half Marathon in the morning + Saturday NOON 10K; 1/2 Marathon in the morning and 5K at NOON; Saturday 10K in the morning + Saturday NOON 5K… you get the idea! OR of course you can just come and run one event. But if you have ever been “ultra curious” this is a great way to expand your boundaries!
