Mt Ashland Hill Climb
Mt Ashland Hill Climb is scheduled for Sunday June 6, 2027 in Ashland, Oregon. The event sends participants from Lithia Park at 1900 feet to the summit at 7500 feet for a total elevation gain of over one mile and a course distance of about 13.5 miles.
The route begins on pavement, continues on a long fire road up a shaded mountainside, and finishes on a steep single track to the summit. The event format includes separate starts for hikers and mountain bikers to reduce mixing with runners.
Several aid stations are placed along the course, including White Rabbit, 4 Corners, Bull Gap, Mt A Lodge, and the finish. Aid stations will be supplied with water, electrolytes, gels, blocks, snacks, and fruit. Vehicle access at the summit can be limited depending on snow, so supplies at the finish may be restricted.
Registration opens January 1 and entry fees increase on May 1. Youth entrants under 18 receive a 50 percent reduced registration cost. Race fees include a race shirt, lunch, snacks, beer, and prizes; refunds are not offered but registrations can be rolled over to the following year. Packet pickup is available the day before at Rogue Valley Runners in downtown Ashland and there is limited pickup on race day.
All proceeds support local nonprofits: Ashland Woodland and Trails Association, Ashland DEVO, and Rogue Valley Mountain Bike Association. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
