About
Forge the Gorge takes place in Moravia, in Cayuga County, New York, on August 5, 2027, with an 8-mile (13 km) trail course and a 5K (3.1-mile) option. The route crosses dense forest and mountain trails, with a profile that alternates climbs and more runnable sections at elevation.
With a festive atmosphere, the race combines athletic effort with the discovery of an unspoiled natural setting, in a region known for its gorges and waterfalls, including nearby Taughannock Falls. It is aimed at trail runners looking for a mid-distance race in a part of Central New York still little visited by the big race circuits.
