Rancho Ramble Trail Run - Spartan Trail

Santa Margarita, California, United States

Nov 1, 2026 - Sunday

10k, 50k, Half-marathon, Marathon, Ultra

Race Information

Central California is full of classic Central Coast scenery, with rolling grassy hills, wide open cow pastures, and oak-lined arroyos winding throughout the venue. While it might not appear mountainous and technical at first glance, the hills here are deceptively steep and long, your footing will often be unsure, and whatever rhythm you find is sure to be broken by the constantly changing terrain. Make sure to stick around after the race to sample some of the local wine made from grapes grown right on the course!

This race is held within a classic Spartan OCR festival weekend.
