Paseo de Mariposa

The Paseo de Mariposa is a family-friendly trail running event held in Mariposa, California, set against the scenic backdrop of the Sierra Nevada foothills. Participants can choose from three distances: a 5K, an 8(ish)K, and a challenging 12K Trail Run. The event promotes health and wellness, encouraging children under 18 to participate for free.

The race starts at the historic Mariposa Courthouse and features various terrains, with aid stations and safety support provided. Although the event is not scheduled for 2025, there is hope for its return in the future. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
