Race Information

Ragnar Trail Zion is the trail relay that inspired the entire series! Grab your most adventurous friends and to run, relay-style, over two days and one star-filled night! Your team will set up camp at Zion Ponderosa Ranch, a hidden gem just outside of Zion National Park. This venue features amenities like a pool, hot tubs, showers, a rock climbing wall and restrooms.

Join a day earlier, on Thursday, for a full blown 3-day weekend desert adventure. On Friday, the real fun begins as teams of 8 (or 4) cycle through a series of three challenging trail loops that start and finish at Ragnar Village.

You’ll run through sweet summer sage, under towering ancient pines and across red dirt trails that take you up (and up!) to some expansive overlooks including Dixie National Forest, Cedar Breaks, and Zion National Park’s famous β€œCheckerboard Mesa.”

When the sun sets, the party keeps going as runners head to the trails in the dark for a spirit-quest, soul-searching, star-fueled night of running where the real memories are made.

The race wraps up Saturday where you can finish together under the Ragnar arch and celebrate with the best medal ever.
