Mt. A Trail Challenge

Mt. A Trail Challenge is an annual event held at Mount Agamenticus in York, Maine. Runners and walkers choose between a 5K or a 1-mile course.

The race is timed in a traditional way by the York High School Cross Country Team, creating a friendly, community atmosphere. The 5K course climbs around the summit, following Big A, Hairpin Turn, and Ring Trail, with a return to the top; the 1-mile route uses the universal access trail around the inner loop to the pollinator garden. Proceeds support Mount A conservation and education efforts; volunteers are welcome, and participants may earn a logo pin for beating personal records, with raffles offered.
