Sinnemahone Ultra Marathon Trail Run

The Sinnemahone 50K is a challenging trail run. The race winds through the Elk State Forest using DCNR trails. Held the third Saturday of October each year, giving trail runners a remarkable view of the PA Wilds and the animals that call it home.

The trail run begins and ends in the picturesque town of Emporium the county seat of Cameron County. The race site is located about 2 hours north of Altoona and 1 1/2 hours north of State College. The trail races will be conducted mostly on Pennsylvania Department of Conservation’s Elk State Forest lands trails.

The Sinnemahone Ultra Marathon Trail Run consists of a 50K, 25K and 10K. The course is a single-loop course, starting in downtown Emporium and includes much of the Bucktail Path in Elk State Forest.

The name Sinnemahoning means “Stony Lick” in the Lenape language.
