12 Hour Adventure Race

Shenandoah River State Park located in the shadows of Skyline Drive we have created another race to push you hard enough to bend but not break. If you are up for the challenge, our 12 Hour Adventure Race is one of our more challenging races. This race offers a great river paddle, fantastic mountain biking with no hike-a-bike or rock gardens. The course also offers a nice flow MTB trail that has great climbs and excellent rewards with its downhill sections. Once the race begins, we will give you 12 hours to get as many points as possible. This course will give you multiple route options and racers will have a pre-plotted map for the trekking, biking and water section.

6 Hour Race Description

We have designed this race course to give beginner-advanced racers the opportunity to take the next step in adventure racing. This race is designed for those who wish to take their adventure racing skills to the next level. We have an excellent course designed for you to run, bike, paddle, and navigate your way around Shenandoah River State Park. The estimated distance for the 8 hour race will be around 15 - 20 miles. The breakdown will be 3 miles of paddling, 3-6+ miles of trekking and 4-8+ miles of mountain biking. This course will give you lots of route options and racers will have pre-plotted maps. If you are new to adventure racing and want to take the next step up to a longer race, this is the perfect chance. This race will feature a river paddle, thrilling single track mountain biking on a great trail system and a fun and challenging trekking course where you will have numerous options for bushwhacking to each checkpoint. This race allows riders to go through transition several times during the race to resupply. This course is not clearable even by advanced racers; get as many checkpoints before time runs out!
