Race Information
The flowy, fast, and fun trails at Schaeffer Farms are wonderfully maintained and offer twisty single-track, stream crossings, log ramps, a few hills, and open farm field running. Moderately technical with some rocky and rooty sections, these racecourses begin and end at the beautiful Button Farm Living History Center off Black Rock Road.
