Call Of The Wilds Mountain Fest
Waterville, United States • 19 Oct 2025
The Call of the Wilds Mountain Fest is a challenging trail running event held in Waterville, Pennsylvania, at Little Pine State Park. Scheduled for mid-October to coincide with peak fall foliage, it offers two race distances: a 25K with over 5,000 feet of vertical gain and a 50K featuring about 8,000 feet of elevation. Both courses traverse rugged terrain including the Mid State, Spiked Buck, Tiadaghton, Pesto, Panther Run, and the notorious Torbert Trail, known for its difficulty. The event limits participation to 400 runners and enforces cut-off times to ensure daylight finishes. It is designed for experienced trail runners seeking a demanding and scenic mountain challenge.
