Camp Chestnut Ridge Trail Races

The Chestnut Ridge Trail Race takes place on the trails and roads of Chestnut Ridge Camp and Retreat Center in Efland, NC. Participants can choose from several race options, including an in-person trail race or a virtual race. The event is a "no headphones" race to ensure safety and allows runners to enjoy the natural setting. Proceeds benefit the “Pass It On” Annual Fund, supporting children's camp programs. Participants receive race shirts, with virtual participants having theirs mailed. The event prohibits pets and strollers, and childcare is available for runners. Awards are given to top male and female finishers.
