TARC Blue Hills Skyline Trail Run

Canton, United States • 21 Jun 2025

The TARC Blue Hills Skyline Trail Run is a challenging 12K race set in the scenic Blue Hills Reservation in Milton, Massachusetts. Participants will tackle approximately 2,300 feet of elevation gain on a rugged course featuring rocky terrain, steep climbs, and technical descents, all while enjoying views of the Boston skyline. The race emphasizes self-navigation, with minimal course markings, and encourages runners to familiarize themselves with the route beforehand. An aid station is available along the course, and participants are required to carry their own hydration. The event promotes a Leave No Trace policy and acknowledges the land's original stewards, the Pokanoket Nation. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
