Dana Peak Trail Run

Event overview

The Dana Peak Trail Run takes place at Dana Peak Park on the north shore of Stillhouse Hollow Lake in Harker Heights, Texas. The course follows rocky shore terrain with climbs and descents; most trails run through trees with some exposed sections and lake views. Each distance follows a single loop with limited repeat trails. All runners must carry a hydration device (water bottle or hydration bladder). The race is cupless; a reusable collapsible cup is available for purchase at packet pickup.
