Creede Mountain Run
Creede Mountain Run takes place in Creede, Colorado, centered near 200 Loma Ave, on Saturday, Sep 5, 2026. The event offers multiple trail distances through and above town, including routes that pass through Creede's Historic Mining District and sections near the Continental Divide.
Available distances:
- 50K
- 22 Miler
- 12 Miler
- 2 Miler
The 50K follows the main course of the 22 Miler until the Oso Creek Cutoff (TR 787), then follows Miners Creek (TR 803) down to the Sunnyside Cutoff (FR 517) and rejoins the main course on FR 504. The final approach runs past Bea McClure Drive and the Historic Sunnyside Chapel into town. 50K runners must reach the Oso Creek Cutoff within 5 hours or will be directed to the 22 Miler. The overall 50K finish cutoff is 10 hours.
The 22 Miler starts in Creede at 8,852 feet, departs the main course at Allen's Crossing (10,500 feet), and tops out near the 11 mile mark along the Continental Divide at about 12,500 feet before rejoining the main course. Runners must reach Allen's Crossing within 1.5 hours to continue on the 22 Miler; otherwise they will be directed to the 12 Miler.
The 12 Miler follows a Forest Service road through the Historic Mining District starting in town. The 2 Miler is a fun run or walk through Downtown Creede, heading north into the canyon and turning back at the confluence of West and East Willow Creeks.
Registration closes on Sun, Aug 30 at 11:59 PM MT. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
