Baker Lake 50k, October 3, 2026
The Baker Lake 50K is an out and back trail race at Baker Lake, Washington. The course begins at Kulshan Campground, where a free campsite is available the night before the event.
Runners leave the campground on a paved road that crosses the Upper Baker Dam for the first quarter mile. The route then follows gravel for just over a mile to the Baker Lake Trailhead, after which runners continue on the trail.
The Baker Lake Trail includes about 14 miles of single-track that runs along the lake with short sections into old growth forest. The trail is rolling with many rises and descents and winds along the hillside. Mossy and slippery footbridges and log crossings are present, and there are views from bridges over cascading streams. Fallen maple leaves commonly cover the trail in the fall setting.
Registration for the event closes Friday, October 2 at 11:59 PM PT. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
