Larrabee Lakes
Larrabee Lakes is a trail running event held on August 7, 2027, using Fairhaven Park as race headquarters and the Interurban Trail to enter Larrabee State Park. The courses run through lush green forest, pass picturesque lakes, and cross narrow ridgelines formed by the Chuckanut geology with peek-a-boo views of Mt. Baker and Bellingham Bay.
Distances offered:
- 12K: 1500' elevation gain.
- 25K: 2900' elevation gain.
- 50K: 6500' elevation gain.
All courses begin and finish at Fairhaven Park and share sections before splitting and rejoining at various points. The route includes singletrack, stair sections, technical ridge trails, steep and rocky segments, several long climbs and descents, and sections adjacent to lakes such as Lost Lake and Fragrance Lake. The 50K follows additional out-and-back segments and extra ridge laps before returning to the shared section.
Aid stations are placed along each course (12K two stations, 25K three stations, 50K five stations). The event is cupless; runners should carry a refillable container. 50K runners may use a labeled drop bag under 20L at Lost Lake Aid Station; drop bags are not mailed if left behind. Trails remain open to other users including equestrians, pedestrians and cyclists.
Every finisher receives a handmade piece of finisher swag produced with solar power, and finishers receive a unique handcrafted race award. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
