Rock The Ridge
Rock The Ridge is an annual fundraising trail event held at Mohonk Preserve in the Shawangunk Mountains of New York’s Hudson Valley. The event centers on a 50-mile course that follows well-maintained, wide carriage roads through forests and along ridgelines with scenic views. Organizers also offer a full trail marathon and relay-team options.
The event structure includes closely spaced, well-stocked aid stations and an 18-hour cutoff for the 50-mile course. Volunteers support course management and aid stations, and organizers provide personalized fundraising support for participants. The finish area includes a finish-line gathering for participants.
