About the race

The 2027 Bear Mountain Trail Challenge is a trail running event held at the Anthony Wayne Recreation Area in Bear Mountain State Park, located on the west bank of the Hudson River about an hour outside New York City. The event uses the park's network of trails that connect streams, lakes, and minor peaks.

The course passes mostly through dense forest with some higher points that offer views of the surrounding area. Runners should expect a mix of short, punchy climbs and extremely technical sections. Although the elevation profile can suggest a fast route, the rugged and technical terrain often reduces speed and requires careful footing.

Race distances and participation types include:

  • Trail 50K
  • Trail Half Marathon
  • Trail 10K
  • Spectators

The event information notes an organized race day program and options for volunteers, and it is presented as an in-person trail running event at the specified location on May 01, 2027. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
