The Silverton Alpine Marathons, held in Silverton, Colorado, offer three trail running distances: 50K, marathon, and an 8-mile out-and-back. Set in the scenic San Juan Mountains, the courses follow historic Alpine Loop jeep roads, passing ghost mining towns like Howardsville, Eureka, Animas Forks, and Gladstone. The 50K and marathon feature significant elevation gains, reaching a high point of nearly 12,930 feet at California Pass.

The event emphasizes a rugged mountain adventure with well-stocked aid stations, chip timing, and race perks including finisher awards. Runners experience breathtaking alpine terrain and historic sites, making it a memorable challenge for trail enthusiasts. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
