Come enjoy the famous Bend Ale Trail this November and run your way into the Bend Ale Festival. Scenic course takes runners up through the foothills of the Cascade Mountain Range with a finish at the beautiful Northwest Crossing. Each participant gets entry into the Bend Ale Festival to finish off a great day of racing.
This breathtaking half marathon & 10K course are brand new to Central Oregon. Racers start on NW Crossing Road just north of Summit High School and head west into the new Tree Farm housing development. Take in sweeping views of the Cascade Mountain Range including Mt. Hood, Mt. Jefferson, Three Fingered Jack, North, Middle, and South Sisters, and finally Mt. Bachelor. Upon return to the Start/Finish area back at NW Crossing all runners will be greeted with great food, cold beer and a warm tent. You will be given your Bend Ale Run pint glass, 4 tokens, and free entry into the Bend Ale Festival. Stay and sample some of the 40 beers on tap will enjoying music and great conversation with your friends around one of the many fire pits. Truly a great way to cap off a great run.
