Bend Trail Series
The Bend Trail Series is a four‑race series of low key evening trail races around Bend, Oregon. Each race uses a different local trail and courses range from 4 to 7 miles. Races are held once a month on a Thursday evening; the 2027 dates are April 22, May 13, June 10, and July 15, followed by an awards party after the final race.
Runners who complete at least three races are included in the overall Series standings. Series podium finishers receive prizes from sponsors. A post‑Series party after the final race includes awards for Series men, women, and non‑binary podium winners, a raffle, and beer from Cascade Lakes Brewing.
Series registration is offered in advance with tiered fees for the full four‑race package: $80 for the early period and $85 for a later period. These organizer fees do not include processing fees, taxes, or selected add‑ons. Single race registration is available at each race for $25 cash. There are no transfers and no refunds; cancellations more than 30 days before a race receive a 50% credit toward a future race, and cancellations 30 days or fewer before a race receive no credit.
Maps for each route are posted the Monday before each race on the event Route page and on Facebook. The races take place on lands acknowledged as the traditional homelands of the Klamath Tribe and the Confederated Tribes of the Warm Springs.
