Cascade Lakes Relay
The Cascade Lakes Relay is a multi-day team relay held June 26–27, 2026 in Central Oregon, finishing in Bend. The route begins in the Cascade Mountains at Diamond Lake Resort and passes through the Oregon Outback, rural agricultural areas, the Cascade Lakes Highway, around Mt. Bachelor, and into the resort community of Bend. The event includes an opening barbecue at Diamond Lake and a finishline festival at Riverbend Park with music and food; the course also includes a midnight rave and other on-course activities.
Three event formats are offered:
- 216.6 miles, 36 legs, 8 to 12 runners
- 132 miles, 24 legs, 8 to 12 runners
- 94 miles, 18 legs, 6 to 12 runners
Teams register under a captain; the captain may register the team and add members later. Registration fees are due in full at the time of registration and team registration is non-refundable once accepted. Teammates should be registered by April 1 to guarantee race-day T-shirt sizing; changes to division, team name, or team captain can be made before the race, with bib information final by June 1. A hire-a-volunteer fee applies and varies by registration date. A portion of proceeds supports local charities through the Cascade Relays Foundation.
