Kesugi Ridge Traverse and Half Traverse

The Kesugi Ridge Traverse and Half Traverse takes place in Denali National Park, Alaska, on August 7, 2027. Two trail races are offered: the Half Traverse of 14 miles (22.5 km) and the full Traverse of 31 miles (49.9 km), both running along the mountainside in an alpine setting.

The course follows Kesugi Ridge, with views of the surrounding ranges throughout. This is a demanding high-mountain trail race, challenging for its altitude and remoteness, and best suited to runners comfortable in wild terrain. The full Traverse is a real test of endurance and navigation in a remote alpine environment.
