Run for the Rivers with Wild Rivers Land Trust
Run for the Rivers is an in-person community run and walk hosted by Wild Rivers Land Trust on May 2, 2026, at Butler Bar Campground in Port Orford, Oregon. The event is set along the Elk River and is described as supporting the conservation work of the land trust on Southern Oregon’s Wild Rivers Coast.
The event offers two course options:
- 5K fun run and walk
- 1 mile course
The schedule includes an initial check-in with waiver turn-in and t-shirt distribution, the running and walking portion along the river, and a post-event wrap-up that includes snacks and prizes. The event is offered for all ages. Organizers note a no refunds policy. Ticket prices range from free to USD 28.52, and registration by April 17 guarantees a special event t-shirt. Carpooling is encouraged.
Wild Rivers Land Trust’s mission is to conserve and sustain natural, scenic, working, and culturally or historically significant lands through community and landowner collaboration. The event is presented as a way to enjoy the outdoors while supporting that conservation mission. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
