Clikapudi Trail Runs

Start your New Year on the right foot (or left) with an awesome trail race on the shores of Shasta Lake!

The Clickapudi Trail is a 7 mile loop on the south shore of Shasta Lake. We will start at the Jones Valley Boat Ramp Parking Lot (note: they charge an $8 parking fee, but your parking fee is covered by your registration, you will NOT have to pay to park on race day).

All runners will begin their races by running one mile south on the road (it will be closed to traffic for 15 minutes) to the trail crossing. Here the 5K runners will turn right and follow the Clickapudi Trail back to the parking lot in a clockwise direction. The 10K and Half-Marathon runners will turn left and follow the Clickapudi Trail back to the parking lot in a counter-clockwise direction.

When the Half-Marathon runners reach the parking lot (mile 6.2) they can stop at the aid station and continue to the trailhead in the SW corner of the lot. From here it is two miles to the road crossing and then five more miles to the parking lot and the finish line. Both loops counter-clockwise.

The road portion consists of gently rolling hills. The 5K portion of trail (the two mile section west of the road) is relatively flat single-track. The 10K portion (the five mile section east of the road) is mostly flat or gently rolling with three medium climbs.
