IronHike Amicalola Falls Appalachian Trail Approach Fall Series 2026
This series is a lap based mountain staircase endurance event held at Amicalola Falls State Park in Dawsonville, GA, from 12/10/2026 to 12/13/2026. Each lap on the course includes 604 stairs up and 604 stairs down. Events are organized by lap totals and elapsed time targets that range from 12 hours up to 84 hours.
Distances offered in the series include a range of multi mile ultra events. Several formats are available: solo entries and team entries using a FlexRelay model. In FlexRelay teams of two, three or four share laps among team members. Teams decide how many laps each person completes with no minimum or maximum laps per person. Event notes state that one person may pay the registration fee and the team settles payment among themselves, and that each team member must register so they can sign the event waiver.
Individual event listings specify lap counts, cumulative elevation gain and loss, total stairs and scheduled elapsed time for that distance. Examples from the program include events that list thousands to tens of thousands of feet of elevation change and multiple laps over the course duration. The venue address is 418 Amicalola Falls State Park Road, Dawsonville, GA 30534, United States. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
