Event overview
The Last Chance Trail Run & Pancake Breakfast takes place on Saturday, December 20, 2025, at Skyline Lodge in Highland Forest, Fabius, NY. The event includes a trail run on forest trails and an all-you-can-eat pancake breakfast served in the lodge. Registration is open to participants up to age 99. The event organizer notes the run has not been canceled in past years when roads to Fabius remained open.
Course and logistics
The main trail is 9 miles long with marked shortcuts that allow shorter routes. Organizers describe the trails as snowy and icy with stream crossings and fallen trees; footing can be difficult and the full trail is expected to take about 80 to 120 minutes. Participants may choose when to begin and stop their run. If park snow conditions are deep, the route may be moved to park roads.
Entry and location
Highland Forest is located in the southeast corner of Onondaga County off Route 80, about 4 miles east of Fabius. Entry fees vary by age; the event page lists age-based prices and a family maximum. On-site registration on the day of the event is available. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
