About the race
The Texas Canyon Trail Run takes place on the Amerind Museum property within Texas Canyon near Dragoon, Arizona. The event includes multiple race divisions for adults and youth and is held entirely on trails through the canyon and surrounding native desert vegetation.
Distances offered:
- 10.5 miles - 10 Miler Run Through the Boulders (run only, no walkers)
- 10.5 miles - Youth 10 Miler Run Through the Boulders
- 6.2 miles - 10K Trail Run/Walk and 10K Youth Trail Run/Walk
- 3.1 miles - 5K Adult Trail Run/Walk and 5K Youth Trail Run/Walk
The 10.5 mile course includes approximately four miles of slightly technical single track through the boulders of Texas Canyon before continuing onto more traditional trail sections. The course has three water stations and one porta-pot. Participants are asked to follow event rules that prohibit dogs, headsets, and smoking.
Finish-area amenities include food vendors and an awards presentation. Medals are awarded, and the overall male and female winners of the 5K and 10K receive a piece of Native American art. Race registration includes free entry to the Amerind Museum and Art Gallery when the bib number or guest pass is shown.
Participation supports the Amerind Museum’s mission of fostering and promoting knowledge and understanding of the Native Peoples of the Americas through research, education, conservation, and community engagement. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
