Devil's Toll Race

The Devil's Toll Race, held in Middle Brook, Missouri, is a challenging 13-mile event across rugged terrain on the Ozark Trail. Participants traverse from Taum Sauk Mountain, Missouri's highest point, past Mina Sauk Falls, through the Devil’s Toll Gate rock formation, and finish with a river crossing at Johnson Shut-ins State Park. The race offers both running and hiking options, solo or in teams of two, with significant elevation changes and technical, rocky paths. It is a self-supported event with minimal aid, requiring participants to carry their own supplies. Proceeds benefit the Ozark Trail Association, dedicated to preserving this scenic trail system.
