The Antelope Island Fall Classic has been a staple of the Utah trail running scene since the early 2010s, offering a late-season test across rolling desert terrain, ridgelines, and wide-open views of the Great Salt Lake. The event has expanded with new distances, including a 75K featuring an out-and-back to the island’s high point, Frary Peak, and a 10-mile loop highlighting the singletrack around Bridger Bay.
With multiple distances and a growing festival atmosphere, the Fall Classic continues to evolve while staying rooted in what has always made it special: simple, scenic, and a perfect way to close out the season.

This is a wonderful course around Antelope Island with great views of the Great Salt Lake. Most of the elevation gain is within the first 15 miles. Some hills were -at least for me- challenging. 2nd half of the trail is basically flat. We run through a herd of bison -’twas fun-! Aid stations are well supplied and at the end you’ll be rewarded with cold beer and a bowl of delicious chili.
