RutFest

Williston, United States • 1 Nov 2025

RutFest (Richmond Ultra Trail Festival) is the Richmond Trail Running Club’s fifth annual weekend trail festival in Williston, Vermont. The 36-hour event at Catamount Outdoor Family Center features two repeatable trail loops of about 3 and 4 miles on the north and south sides of Catamount, offering scenic views of Camel's Hump and Mount Mansfield. The atmosphere is relaxed and community-driven rather than competitive, inviting runners and hikers to log laps at their own pace. Entry is donation-based, with proceeds split between Catamount Outdoor Family Center and the Vermont Huts FOREST Program. Participants sign in, donate snacks, and may earn a buckled finish for 100 miles. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
