Spirit Of Syllamo

Spirit of Syllamo is a rugged multi-distance trail race near Norfork, Arkansas, on the Ozark Highlands Trail. Distances offered: 100 miles, 35 miles, and a 13.1-mile option that will run about 9 miles in 2025 due to route changes after a tornado and floods. The course features highly maintained singletrack through dense forest, steep climbs, rocky terrain, and frequent water crossings with creek conditions that vary with rainfall.

Aid stations are spaced widely and safety is emphasized. After 2025 disruptions, the venue and routes are new; the event maintains a lively, family-friendly atmosphere with meals, music, and laser-engraved awards. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
