Paul Smiths Trail Running Festival
The Paul Smiths Trail Running Festival is a loop-style endurance race held in Paul Smiths, NY on August 22, 2026. The event offers timed running options where participants complete as many laps as possible on an approximately four mile loop within the chosen time limit.
Options include:
- 6 hour option
- 3 hour option
- 1 hour option
The course covers about four miles of moderately rolling terrain. Sections run on singletrack through conifer woods and other sections follow wide former logging roads. The route passes through natural forest setting and offers occasional views toward Whiteface Mountain.
The festival format pairs the timed race with on-site amenities such as live music and food. Packet pickup and check-in are available both on the day of the event and the day before at the VIC lodge. Entry fees are listed in a range and multiple registration options are available.
