Cedro Peak Trail Events

Cedro Peak Trail Events are trail races held in the Cibola National Forest in New Mexico. Organizers plan races for April 18, 2026, and publish course details subject to US Forest Service approval and permits. Past closures for tree thinning and prescribed burns have required course re-routes; organizers note that dozens of trails in the area allow for alternate routes when needed.

The event offers multiple distances:

  • 25k
  • 50k

The planned 25k course will use the same trails as prior years but will be run in reverse, clockwise from Oak Flats through Pine Flat, Juan Tomas, and the Open Space Loop, finishing at Oak Flats. The 50k route is expected to run north from Oak Flats toward the peak and will be either an out and back or a loop returning to the start/finish at Oak Flats. Both races will be timed.

Event services include race photography by a selected photographer, finish line food and drink, staffed aid stations, volunteers, and support from Search and Rescue and radio operators. Organizers state they will provide t-shirts, finisher awards, and top finisher prizes for male and female categories. Organizers also plan to post updates on their event pages as planning progresses.
