Course, rules and logistics
The course follows single-track trails inside Bothe-Napa Valley State Park and includes hills, streams, and rocky sections. The route is marked with orange ribbon at trail crossings. Hikers and walkers are welcome. The event is not associated with the Annual Napa Valley Marathon road race.
There is one aid station at the start/finish area; half marathoners pass it once during their two loops, and marathoners see it at miles 6, 10, 16, and 20. A 6-hour course cut-off applies (specific per-mile paces listed for each distance). Participants are advised to carry water. Headphones and other audio devices are not allowed on course. Parking inside the park has a fee; free overflow parking is available along Hwy 29. T-shirts are provided to all participants; medals are awarded to all marathon and half marathon finishers; personalized award ribbons are mailed to top three finishers by age group. Bib numbers are mailed beginning two weeks before the event; pick up is available on race morning if needed. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
