The course runs on the Santa Ana River Trail from Yorba Linda to Huntington Beach State Park. It passes inland areas described as drier desert land, sections near Disneyland, and finishes near the beach. The route is primarily flat and straight and has a gradual downhill slant following the river toward the ocean.
The event location is listed as 21601 Pacific Coast Highway, Huntington Beach CA 92646. The route was cleared of homeless tents two years ago and is not fenced in at night. A virtual option is available that accommodates any distance, and pacer entries for the full and half marathon are by invitation only.
