Tillamook Burn Trail Run
The Tillamook Burn Trail Run is a spring weekend of trail races held May 15 and 16, 2027, in the Tillamook State Forest. Event staging, parking and the finish area are at historic Reehers Camp, located roughly halfway between Portland and the Oregon Coast.
The weekend features two distinct race options:
- 50 Mile point to point course
- 55K lollipop style route
Courses run through second growth forests and single-track trails with large standing snags and charred stumps remaining from the historic Tillamook Burn. Runners can expect dense fir forest, waterfalls, stream crossings and spring foliage including fiddleheads and blossoms along the route.
Registration opens November 9. Entry fees vary by date: the 50 mile fee ranges from $190 to $220 and the 55K fee ranges from $140 to $165; these fees do not include processing fees or applicable sales tax. There is a $15 shuttle bus fee for runners who need transport to the 50 mile start. The registration fee includes a fully marked course, parking at the staging area, chip timing and live finish results, staffed aid stations, professional medical support and radio communications, a post race meal and beverages, a custom finisher award and event photography.
Parking is day use only at Reehers Camp; one vehicle per participant, no overnight parking and no RVs or trailers. Camping at Reehers Camp is reserved for officials, sponsors and volunteers. Closest hotels are in Hillsboro and Forest Grove; Stub Stewart State Park is listed as nearby camping.
The event acknowledges the traditional lands of the Tillamook, Clatskanie and Atfalati Kalapuya peoples. A portion of proceeds supports the NW Trail Alliance and the Tillamook Forest Heritage Trust State Forests Recreation Fund. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
