Experience the breathtaking panoramic beauty of the Santa Cruz Mountains at the community-driven Skyline Ridge Trail Run and Hike on March 7, 2026. This unique event, organized by the Friends of Ridge Trail as a fundraiser, channels 100% of entry fees directly to the Bay Area Ridge Trail organization, supporting its mission to connect open spaces. Runners and hikers can choose from three stunning distances—a 10K, a Half Marathon, or a challenging 50K—each course meticulously designed to showcase epic ridgetop views, serene forests, and expansive grasslands across multiple open-space preserves. The inclusive atmosphere welcomes participants of all levels, with hikers encouraged to join the 10K and Half Marathon courses to enjoy the landscape at their own pace.
The event is characterized by its grassroots spirit and focus on the trail experience, featuring well-stocked aid stations, clear course markings with pink ribbons, and a generous 9-hour cutoff for the 50K to accommodate a wide range of abilities. Every finisher receives a distinctive Bay Area Ridge Trail duffel bag, a practical memento of a day spent supporting a vital conservation cause. More than just a race, it's a gathering for the Bay Area outdoor community to celebrate and give back to the trails they love, fostering a deep connection between recreation and preservation. Lace up for a rewarding journey where every step contributes to building and protecting the iconic trail network that makes this region so special.
