Route information
Terrain: Trail
Elevation, 115m, Hilly
The 10k course takes runners through the heart of the Alabama hills. Facing an initially tough climb, participants will stretch through 50 meters of elevation in the first 3 kilometers. After this, they will descend through gentle rollers before taking on a steep incline at the 5k mark.
After climbing 60m, runnners will then slowly descend downwards towards the end of the course, twisting and turning past Lone Pine Creek on route to the finish line.
The Half Marathon course is perfect for trail runners of all levels of experience. This panoramic course takes runners past the National Scenic Area as intrepid runners battle steep climbs throughout.
There is a particularly challenging hill at the 10.3 mark which takes runners on a 70m climb over 2 kilometers. Trail course beginners will be relieved to hear that the course then trails downwards until the 17k mark where there is a brief period of steep elevation as runners drift alongside Movie Road.
Runners will finish the event at Whitney Portal Road at the starting area after gliding through a gradual downhill section at the finish.
