A Challenging and Scenic Route to Add to Your Race Lineup This Year
As inviting and beautiful as it is undeniably strenuous, the Trapp Mountain Marathon hosted each year in Stowe is one that brings dedicated athletes from across the map together in the name of a shared passion for running. This competition puts the beauty of the surrounding Green Mountains on full display for competitors and spectators alike without fail. Those who choose to take part in this distance trail run gather at the Trapp Family Lodge as a starting point each October. The timing of the race is strategic as it ensures cooler weather is on every runner’s side and they’re treated to gorgeous changing colors of leaves overhead as well. The course is designed around a single-track, winding route that includes a combination of paved trails, gravel roads, and opportunities to scramble to the summit of Round Top Mountain as well. The reward for athletes often comes in the form of the breathtaking views of Mount Mansfield they can enjoy along the way as they tackle 1900 feet of elevation change per route loop they complete. While every runner who signs up to participate in the Trapp Mountain Marathon for either the full race or the half-marathon will receive a shirt, race packet, and post-race meal options, prizes are awarded specifically to those who finish first through third in the male and female divisions.
