Ragnar Trail South Cascades

Ragnar Trail South Cascades is a trail running event at Willamette Pass Resort in Crescent Lake, Oregon. The venue includes singletrack, forested cross-country ski trails, service roads, and ridgelines that pass near volcanic peaks and alpine lakes. Notable views along the course include Diamond Peak, Central Cascades features, Odell Lake, Rosary Lakes, and the summit of Eagle Peak with sightlines to Cowhorn Mountain and Mt. Yoran.

The event is offered as team relays and as individual races with three entry options: Single Loop, a 6 hour timed ultra, and a 24 hour timed ultra. The Red Loop (Single Loop) climbs about 1,611 feet to the summit of Eagle Peak and descends via service road and the Skyliner Bike trail back to the transition area. Relay teams run multiple loops that match the individual ultra loops.

Distances and elevation highlights:

• Team relay total: 117.6 miles
• Miles per relay runner: 14.7 miles
• Single Loop (individual): 6.9 miles, 1,611 ft gain
• Ultra loop (relay/individual): 14.7 miles, 3,280 ft gain

Ragnar Village at the resort provides camping and lodging options including glamping and tent rentals, and on-site amenities such as an indoor restaurant and bar, food vendors, restrooms, gondola rides, and nearby cabins and RV sites. Typical late June weather trends toward daytime highs in the mid 60s to mid 70s and nighttime lows in the 50s, so participants should plan for layered clothing. Teams receive items such as partner samples, a captain gift, medals, and finisher shirts. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
