Westmore Mountain Challenge
The Westmore Mountain Challenge is a one-day, 26-mile trail running and hiking event in Vermont's Northeast Kingdom, featuring five mountains: Moose, Hor, Pisgah, Haystack, and Bald. Participants traverse steep, scenic public trails with a cumulative elevation gain of about 6,142 feet. The course includes varied terrain, water and aid stations, and shuttle-supported drop-offs.
Options for shorter distances and a full marathon-length route are available. The event emphasizes sustainable trail use and community, supporting local conservation efforts led by NorthWoods Stewardship Center and its youth crews. A post-event celebration with food and awards is held at the NorthWoods Lodge.
Registration is limited to protect the trails. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
