Patagonia Salmon Run 5K

Patagonia is excited to announce the 29th Annual Salmon Run, to be held November 16, 2025.

This year marks the 29th Annual running of the salmon and we are going to make it better than ever. As a reminder, this race always sells out, so make sure you get your registration in.

This year's race beneficiary will be South Coast Habitat Restoration, a local non-profit organization based in Carpinteria that is dedicated to environmental stewardship and habitat enhancement. South Coast Habitat Restoration is actively supporting fish restoration for steelhead trout and locally is working on a fish passage project in the Ventura River watershed at the Wheeler Gorge campground removing four migration barriers and installing two bridges. 

Additionally, we want the Salmon Run to be a Zero-Waste-Event to mitigate sending anything to the waste stream that doesn't have to. We will send out details on how to prepare for this closer to the day of the race, but plan to bring your own water bottle and coffee mug.

Please note:
