Diablito 50/50 - July 24, 2027
Diablito 50/50 is an ultramarathon held at Tickfaw State Park in Springfield, LA, organized by BTR. The event offers two distances on a 4-mile trail loop that repeats to reach race distances.
The course loops through multiple named trails and habitats, including the Gum Cypress Trail, Pine Hardwood Trail, River Overlook / Bottomland Hardwood Trail, and River Trail. Runners will pass boardwalks and run alongside the Tickfaw River through cypress-tupelo swamp, bottomland hardwood forest, and mixed pine-hardwood forest. Poisonous snakes, alligators, and other wildlife may be present on or near the trails.

Lodging options at Tickfaw State Park include improved and unimproved campsites, cabins, and a group camp. Cabins are supplied with basic cookware, dinnerware, utensils, towels, and linens; group camp guests must bring their own similar supplies.
