Virginia Spartan Event Weekend
Race Information
Call out your friends, co-workers and loved ones to get off the couch and into the mud. Whether they help you over the wall or chase you up the mountain, make sure they’re with you at the starting line.
Infinity Downs and Oak Ridge Farm has seen its fair share of musical legends at the annual four-day LOCKN' music festival. But now, these expansive grassy fields and tortuous jeep trails make room for a new kind of legend: thousands of Spartans reaching for the edges of possibility.
Nelson County is home to 45 miles of Appalachian Trail. Ascend the Blue Ridge Mountains from Rt. 56 in Tyro for a stunning active recovery hike. Or, if you’re looking for a challenge, hike 2 miles from the Montebello Fish Hatchery to Spy Rock for a 360-degree panoramic view of numerous peaks.
Nature isn’t the only thing that’s preserved on this pristine landscape, journey back in time at one of Nelson County Preserve’s several weather-worn 19th-Century dwellings. There is simply no substitute for a breathtaking sunrise on the Blue Ridge Mountains.
