Wild Woman Trail Marathon
Wild Woman Trail Runs is an all women trail-running weekend held at the base of Mount Adams in Trout Lake, Washington, in the Columbia River Gorge. The organizers list dates for 2027 as June 18-20, 2027. Events take place across a multi-day weekend that combines trail racing with camping and community activities.
Race options include:
- 50k
- Marathon
- Half Marathon
- Relay team sections from 4.6 to 8 miles
The weekend is presented as a retreat-style event with on-site camping included and encouraged for runners of all distances. The program described includes speaker panels, workshops, post-run pizza, lunch for finishers, recovery offerings such as cold-soak tubs, and a small-scale, grassroots atmosphere with multiple aid stations on the course.
The event emphasizes practical support for women on trails, noting attention to needs such as managing menstrual cycles, restroom access, and apparel-related chafing. Participants may encounter forested trails with stream crossings on the marathon course. Family attendance is permitted. The event traces its origins to 2012 when it began as an all-women marathon or 50k option, and it continues to combine racing with community-focused weekend activities.
