Whiskey Basin Trail Runs, Prescott AZ
The Whiskey Basin Trail Runs take place on April 17, 2027 in Prescott, Arizona, centered at Watson Lake Park and running on the Prescott Circle Trail. Multiple race distances are offered:
- 92K
- 60K
- 33K
- Half-Marathon
- 10K
The 92K follows the full Prescott Circle Trail and begins and ends at Watson Lake Park. The shorter distances run point to point along sections of the Prescott Circle Trail and all finish at Watson Lake. Course surfaces include gravel paths, single track, granite rock scrambles, and exposed sections through the Granite Dells and around Watson Lake.
Aid stations are placed along each course; interval distances vary by race (reported ranges span roughly 0.6 to 11 miles). The event is cupless; runners are expected to carry a reusable cup or obtain one on site. Drop bags are allowed for the 92K at specified aid stations; a designated area is provided for personal drop bags for some shorter distances.
Crews and pacers have specific allowances: crews are permitted at start and finish for several distances, and pacers are allowed only for the 92K under published rules. Medical personnel are stationed at start and finish with the ability to respond to aid stations. Parking at Watson Lake Park is managed by the event and the park entry fee is handled through registration. Camping is available at Watson Lake with limited sites reserved for race weekend.
Awards are given to the top three men and women in each distance and all finishers receive a finisher award. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
