Devil's Toll Race

The Devil's Toll Race, held in Middle Brook, Missouri, is a challenging 13-mile event across the rugged 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 Black 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 terrain. It emphasizes self-sufficiency, with no aid stations and limited cell service. Proceeds support the Ozark Trail Association, dedicated to preserving this scenic and historic trail system.
