Echo Valley

Echo Valley : May 30–31, 2026 : Chelan, WA

Echo Valley is a two day trail running event held at 1700 Cooper Gulch Road in Chelan, Washington. The event offers multiple looped trail distances and organized camping available before and after the race days. All distances start from the base of the Echo Valley ski area and follow single-track trails.

The courses use winding, nicely graded trails with long sustained climbs and gentle descents through ponderosa pine forest and fields of lupine and balsam root. Runners will have views toward Lake Chelan and the Chelan Valley. All distances are single loops; the half-marathon follows an abbreviated portion of the 50K route. The 10K returns via the Bergman Gulch Trail while the half and 50K continue on extended trails and finish after a final descent called Waterbar Heaven and a short climb to the finish.

Available distances:

• 1 mile kids' race
• 10K
• Half-marathon
• 50K (Saturday only)
