New River Gorge Rim to Rim Race
The New River Gorge Rim to Rim Race is a 6-mile road race hosted by Active Southern West Virginia in the New River Gorge near Fayetteville, WV. The route begins on the south rim along Fayette Station Road (Route 82), descends Burma Road and Ames Heights Road to the river bottom, then climbs back to the opposite rim, finishing with a short trail section. Runners face a 1,300-foot descent and a 1,300-foot ascent, including a steep 20% incline known as the Burma Burn.
The closed-road, chip-timed race includes bus transport to the start, finish-line photos, a finisher medal, post-race brunch, and supports Active SWV’s community programs. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
