Dirt Days Trail Series - Ault Park Switchback
The Dirt Days Trail Series continues with the Ault Park Switchback, held at Ault Park in Cincinnati, Ohio. This event explores the park's network of wooded trails and historical landmarks. Both runners and walkers are welcome to participate in the event.
The course covers a distance of approximately 3.6 miles. Participants begin with a short loop near the pavilion before entering the woods. The route includes rolling terrain, passing by an old railroad trestle and a pioneer road dating back to the late 1700s. The trail features multiple twists, turns, and various elevation changes as it winds through the park’s trail system. After navigating the woods, the course returns to the pavilion area and concludes at the soccer field.
Participants have access to various amenities during the event:
- 3.6 Miles Trail run or walk involving a loop through park woods and historical paths.
The registration fee includes a timed bib, a marked course, a fluid station, and post-race refreshments. Technical shirts are available for purchase separately. Check-in and bib pickup take place at the venue on the morning of the event. Awards are presented based on age grading, and a random drawing for prizes is held following the completion of the course.
