Squak Mountain Trail Run
Saturday, April 22, 2023
Squak Mountain will take your breath away – both the views and the elevation gain! It’s not our steepest climb, but your quads will get a good workout, and it will be worth every step! While only a short drive from Seattle, Squak Mountain State Park feels like a wilderness solitude. The park features miles of well-maintained trails and beautiful views of the surrounding mountains.
For this race, we are offering 12km, half-marathon and 50km distances.
Squak Mountain is comprised of two courses: a 12K loop and a half-marathon loop. The 50K runners get to complete two half-marathon loops and a bonus 5-mile loop – lucky! Both courses start and finish at the main Squak Mountain Trailhead.
The trails will be open to other users during the event, including equestrians on the first small loop, and hikers. See our FAQ page for more information about sharing the trails.
There will be aid stations throughout the course with volunteers to help, food to eat and hydration to refuel. And of course, there will be an assortment of yummy food and treats waiting for you at the finish line.
This is a cupless race. All runners should carry with them a refillable container that they can run with. There will be a limited number of cups for emergency situations.
Squak Mountain is a Washington State Park, which means that a Discover Pass is needed to park. See the Directions section below for more information
