It's RidgeWalk time! We are very excited to welcome you back for our annual Fall RidgeWalk and Run event for our 34th year!
The 34th Annual RidgeWalk & Run Event, located in beautiful southwestern New York State takes place each fall as the hillsides are turning into a kaleidoscope of rich reds, oranges and yellows. Our event encompasses many events so if you are looking for a casual stroll through the woods or prefer a competitive long run we are just what you are looking for.
This year's RidgeWalk & Run event is an in-person event however we will continue to offer an at home (virtual) option for those who are not able to participate in-person.
Here is how it will work:
IN-PERSON PARTICIPATION
Select the event you would like to participate in and complete your registration electronically through this site. Follow the prompts to complete your registration. You will receive a confirmation email once your registration is complete.
AT HOME PARTICIPATION
Remember, all proceeds from the RidgeWalk & Run still go to supporting our local community wellness initiatives in Allegany County.
USATF Niagara Association Championships: The Ridge Walk and Run 25km will serve as the 2025 USATF Niagara Open and Masters Trail Championships. The race will also be part of the 2025 USATF Niagara Runner Of The Year Series and Team Grand Prix Series
See you on the trails!
