About
The Palm Springs Tram Road Challenge is a 6K (3.7-mile) run/walk in Palm Springs on October 17, 2026, climbing nearly 2,000 feet (about 600 meters) from the desert to the mountains. The start is at 7:00 a.m., and participants can run or walk the course while taking in views of the San Jacinto Mountains and the Coachella Valley.
