XTERRA McDowell Mountain Trail Run

With over 80 miles of trails to choose from, McDowell Mountain Regional Park is a trail runner’s paradise. As the venue for the fifth trail running events of the XTERRA Arizona Trail Run Series, these two courses have something for all trail runner levels.

The shorter XTERRA McDowell Mountain 7k Course is easily defined by its name, the Scenic Trail. Following a counterclockwise loop, the rocky climb at mile 1 will keep you on your toes.

The XTERRA McDowell Mountain 15 mile long Course is one of our season’s best trail running events, featuring a gradual climb full of cholla forests and fields of beaver tail cactus. It is one giant loop with a short out and back down to Dixie Mine (and a treat at the turn around).

All participants will receive a huge post-race breakfast, a super cool race tee and finisher medal, as well as entry into fun post-race festivities.
