Race Information
Escape the city for an unforgettable running adventure at Ragnar Trail Rainier. Your team of 8 runners will conquer the trails at Crystal Mountain, just two hours outside of Seattle.
Set up camp and tackle a series of three trail loops on National Forest land conquering the course relay-style for two days and one night. These trails are some of the most challenging in the series (think 2,700 feet of climbing).
You'll get epic views of Mt. Rainier, while you run through high mountain alpine lakes, waterfalls and flowing creeks, the beauty will make every step of the journey worth it. From the breathtaking views to the unique mountain top hand-off, there's not another race quite like it.
Don’t want to do the whole overnight thing? Join the Trail Sprint version of this race happening on the same weekend!
