Bull Of The Woods Trail Races
The Bull of the Woods Trail Races, held in Taos Ski Valley, New Mexico, offer a challenging and scenic trail running experience with a full marathon and two distinct half marathons. The courses traverse high alpine terrain, reaching elevations over 12,000 feet at Kachina Peak (12,481 ft) and Fraser Peak (12,168 ft). Runners enjoy primarily single-track trails through alpine forests, meadows, and ridges, with spectacular views of the Wheeler Peak Wilderness and surrounding peaks.
The event emphasizes a rugged mountain atmosphere with significant elevation gain (over 7,000 feet climbing on the marathon course) and thrilling descents. Proceeds support local trail maintenance and promotion. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
