High Valley Half

High Valley Half

The High Valley Half is a point to point 1/2 Marathon in Eastern Oregon that begins in Cove, OR at Dollar's Corner and finishes at the Eastern Oregon Stockshow grounds in Union. The course follows High Valley Road and is gravel for most of the route.

The course includes nearly 1,000 feet of elevation gain and features sustained climbs and descents. Aid stations with water and fuel are located just after miles 4, 7, and 11. Restroom facilities are limited at the start to one inside a laundromat; there are restrooms at the finish and none along the course. Participants are asked to be respectful of private property.

Packet pick up will occur on race day. This is a point to point event with no shuttle service back to the starting area, so participants need to arrange their own transportation from the finish. Any gear left at the start will be collected in a laundry basket at the finish and held until late afternoon; unclaimed items or items left on the course will be donated to local runners.

Race shirts are included with registration through May 31, 2026. Online registration closes the evening before the race; race day registration is available without a shirt or guaranteed medal and the fee increases by five dollars. Accepted race morning payments include cash, check, and Venmo. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
