240 Minutes of Margraff

About the Event

The inaugural Margraff Trail Run offers an intimate experience for runners eager to explore this scenic locale. With only 100 spots available, securing your place is highly recommended as spaces fill quickly due to the popularity of the area's limited parking options.
Embark on a journey that begins with a leisurely drive up Fratz Road, where narrow lanes wind through residential areas. Take time to admire the unique architecture along the way, including an intriguing container home situated on the right-hand side. As you approach the race site, remember to proceed cautiously and respectfully; your consideration is appreciated by both residents and fellow participants.
The trailhead itself lacks traditional bathroom facilities, but rest assured that portable toilets will be provided for runner convenience. Prepare yourself for a challenging yet rewarding course through natural woodland paths, where the terrain offers a mix of elevation changes and picturesque scenery.
For those interested in lending a hand or simply enjoying the day's amenities, volunteer opportunities are available. As a participant, you'll have access to race schwag, refreshments, and snacks amidst the forest setting. If you're curious about more details or need assistance, visit our official event page for comprehensive information.
