Great Springs Trail Race - Austin

Great Springs Trail Race – Austin is a Tejas Trails event held at Southeast Metro Park in Del Valle, Texas, just outside Austin. It offers distances from 5K to 50K, plus a Youth 1-Mile option, making it accessible to beginners and ultrarunners alike. The course features a well-marked 6.5-mile loop on rolling single-track trails above Onion Creek, including a rocky downhill start, short two-way sections, steep climbs and descents, and creek-bed crossings, with about 640 feet of elevation per loop.

The atmosphere emphasizes community, with strong volunteer support, aid stations, a finish-line hub, and a connection to the Great Springs Project protecting the Edwards Aquifer. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
