San Pasqual Valley Trail Race

The San Pasqual Valley Trail Race, held in Escondido, California, is a scenic running event set in San Diego's wine country. Offering three distances—10K, half marathon, and 20 miles—runners enjoy breathtaking views of vineyards and orange groves. The 10K course is relatively flat, while the half marathon and 20-mile routes challenge participants with two summits of Raptor Ridge on an out-and-back course.

The race atmosphere combines the beauty of nature with a festive finish line featuring free wine tastings from local vineyards. Limited to 450 runners, this event also serves as the final championship qualifier for the half marathon category. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
