Spring trail race in Oregon’s historic Tillamook Forest

Spring trail race in Oregon’s historic Tillamook Forest

Overview

The Tillamook Burn Trail Run is a Pacific Northwest springtime tradition that brings trail runners together for a weekend of adventure, community, and forest magic. Staged at historic Reehers Camp in the lush Tillamook State Forest, this event is packed with waterfalls, brisk stream crossings, and a million shades of green as spring blossoms and ferns line the trails.

This race isn’t just about testing your endurance, it’s about immersing yourself in a storied landscape. Named after the legendary forest fires that once consumed the region, today’s Tillamook Burn celebrates resilience and renewal with every mile. Expect epic singletrack, hearty aid stations, and a finish line buzzing with high fives, music, and good food.
