HOKA Canyons Endurance Runs by UTMB takes place in Auburn, California, in the northern Sierra Nevada foothills. The event is held as a 2027 UTMB World Series Americas Major and is scheduled across 22 to 25 April 2027.
Courses use sections of the Western States Trail, including the Rucky Chucky river crossing, Devil’s Thumb and the Swinging Bridge. The event finishes downtown Auburn and includes multiple race distances with published elevation gains.
Distances:
- 100M : 161 KM, 5550 M+ elevation
- 100K : 100 KM, 3750 M+ elevation
- 50K : 50 KM, 1700 M+ elevation
- 25K : 25 KM, 850 M+ elevation
As a World Series Americas Major, the race awards double Running Stones for finishers and grants automatic UTMB World Series Finals qualification to the top 10 female and male finishers in the 100M, 100K and 50K. The Canyons 100K is a Western States Super Golden Ticket race; the top three female and male finishers in that distance receive direct entry to the Western States Endurance Run.
The event describes an active local community of volunteers and supporters. UTMB Community Bibs are available; half of those registration contributions go to a local charity chosen by the race team and support local trail stewardship programs.
