Florida Roots Trail Series - Fort Clinch

Florida Roots Trail Race at Fort Clinch

The Florida Roots Trail Race at Fort Clinch takes place at Fort Clinch State Park on January 23, 2027. The event is organized by Zero Feet Above and offers three looped trail distances that all follow the same 10K loop beginning and ending at the park visitor center.

• 50K 5 loops, 31 miles
• 30K 3 loops, 18.6 miles
• 10K 1 loop, 6.2 miles

The course runs through canopied singletrack in maritime hammock, along the historic fort walls, and beside the coastal shore. Surface conditions vary from sand to well packed dirt and include many short, sometimes steep climbs. Roots are plentiful on the route. Every distance uses the same loop layout.

Event services include chip timing by MCM Timing, a race shirt, finisher awards and post-race food and drinks. Aid stations on the 10K loop include two stations, one near the start and finish with drop bag access and a second station at about 2.5 miles; stations provide water, electrolyte drink, food and bathrooms. All finishers receive an award and top finishers receive Florida State Park passes in overall and masters categories. Group tent camping is available at Fort Clinch on the preceding nights with restrooms, showers and drinkable water. No pacers are allowed. One hundred percent of profits are donated to Florida State Parks. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
