Perpetua Coast
Perpetua Coast is a trail running event held in Yachats, Oregon and the Cape Perpetua National Scenic Area on October 3-4, 2026. The event includes multiple marked courses that run along coastal trails, rocky shoreline bluffs, sandy beaches, headland vistas and moss-draped old growth rainforest. The Cape Perpetua headland rises about 800 feet above the Pacific and provides long coastal views. The race is the third and final event in the Oregon Coast Trail Series. The organizers note a land acknowledgement for the native Alsea peoples, who have lived in the area for at least 6,000 years and who historically managed parts of the headland as open meadows.
