Savannah Sultry Swamp Run
The Savannah Sultry Swamp Run takes place on July 24, 2027 at the Savannah Ogeechee Canal, 681 Fort Argyle Rd, Savannah, GA. The event is organized by Run 4 a Reason and offers trail race options of 20K, 10K, and 5K. Registration opens January 29, 2027 at 12:00 AM ET. Proceeds support the Savannah Ogeechee Canal museum and trail preservation.
The course is based on a 5K loop through a historic Georgia swamp. Trail surfaces include single track, sand, roots, palm sections, and narrow boardwalks; rain can create mud and standing water. All finishers receive a drink glass to add to the Rough Runners drinking glass collection. Event guidelines emphasize being kind, leaving no trace, not disturbing wildlife, and completing any missed course sections before crossing timing mats.
An afterparty follows the race with awards, a waterslide provided by Richmond Hill Bounce and Slide, adult and kid snow cones, and presence from Ogeechee Riverkeeper to share information and a homebrew. The description and trail notes reflect conditions typical of coastal Georgia in late July including high humidity and heat. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
