Race Information
The Elk-Kings Trail Races are Tillamook forest races that will challenge and inspire you with their pretty and technical trail courses. Both involve scrambling up to the summit of Elk and Kings Mountains, and with hearty descents.
The 25K race is a steep and technical course run on single-track trails in the Tillamook State Forest. Runners will summit two mountains – Elk and Kings Mountains – with 5,800 feet of total gain. This Tillamook forest race is tough, but you are up for it -- a real mountain race and the original Tillamook Forest race.
The 50K racers also go up and down Elk and Kings Mountains just like the 25Kers, but on a much more technical course with 7,500 feet of gain.
