Woodside Crossover

Woodside Crossover is a series of trail races held on April 18, 2026, in Huddart County Park and Purisima Creek Redwoods Open Space Preserve, Woodside, California. The courses run through forested slopes, cool canyons, and mixed evergreen and chaparral zones. Runners pass beneath 2nd and 3rd generation moss-covered redwoods and along small streams, gullies, and ridge-line single-track including Crystal Springs and Skyline Trails. Wildlife commonly seen includes black-tailed deer, coyotes, bobcats and gray foxes.

Course surfaces are mostly moderately technical dirt trails with some non-technical fire roads. Hiking or trekking poles are permitted. Courses are marked with colored surveyor ribbon approximately every 200 meters; blue ribbons indicate wrong-way trails. Disposable timing chips are attached to the back of each bib for professional chip timing.
