Oakland Hills Trail Run
The Oakland Hills Trail Run, held at Redwood Regional Park in Oakland, California, offers three challenging distances: 10K, half marathon, and 35K ultramarathon. Set in a serene redwood forest with towering 150-foot coast redwoods, the course features technical dirt trails and fire roads with significant elevation gains (up to 4,550 feet for the 35K). The park's diverse ecosystem includes evergreens, chaparral, and grasslands, home to wildlife like golden eagles and deer.
The event is professionally chip-timed and supports a cupless format to reduce waste. Aid stations provide a variety of nutrition and hydration options. The race fosters a friendly atmosphere with awards for overall and age-group finishers. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
