You'll traverse the dirt hiking trails through scenic Bothe-Napa Valley State Park, located at the north end of Napa Valley. Along the route, you'll be surrounded by babbling streams and majestic redwood, oak, madrone and bay forests. The course is a bit challenging with the hills, streams and rocks - which makes it all the more exciting and rewarding. All the ingredients are here for a great weekend. Bring a picnic and enjoy the picnic grounds where the run starts and finishes, or check out the great restaurants and wineries that make Napa Valley such a popular vacation destination. The event is limited to 400 participants and sells out every year so don't wait too long to register!

Napa Valley Trail Marathon

Post-Race Review/ Results

Nik Southwell now knows what the "wall" is all about in the marathon.  Running in what he called his "debut" marathon, Southwell was physically and mentally wiped out at about the 22-mile mark, the area of the Napa Valley Marathon where the course turns onto Oak Knoll Avenue off the Silverado Trail.
