High Trails Trail Running Retreat

The High Trails Trail Running Retreat is a multi-day event held in Buena Vista, Colorado. Participants stay in a riverside home located near Cottonwood Creek, within walking distance of local trails and Main Street. The retreat is structured as a combination of a training camp and a mountain getaway, focusing on outdoor activity and communal experiences.

Each day features trail adventures with distances ranging from 10 miles to 20 miles. Participants can choose to run, hike, or use a combination of both methods according to their individual goals and fitness levels. A primary feature of the itinerary is a group journey to Hope Pass or one of the 14ers in the Sawatch Range, with the specific route determined by weather conditions and the group composition. The weekend concludes with a shorter shakeout run on the final day before departure.

The event offers several registration options based on lodging preferences:

  • Shared Room
  • Private Room with Shared Bath
  • Private Room with Private Bath
  • No Lodging (for participants-only)

Outside of scheduled trail time, the retreat includes shared meals and time for relaxation by the river. The program is designed to provide an environment for training and connecting with other outdoor enthusiasts in a mountain setting. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
