🏞️ Welcome to the Hahns Peak Hill Climb

Welcome to another year of epic fun, memories and vertical, with the Hahns Peak Hill Climb. This is an 8 mile out and back trail run that starts at the Quarry Lot (FS550 + HWY 129) north of Hahns Peak Village, CO. The EPIC course runs 4 miles up to the top of Hahns Peak and the fire lookout tower built in 1912. The final push to the summit is dominated by a talus slope. Racers will turnaround at the tower, following the trail 4 miles back down to the finish line.

🎉 Race History

This trail race is an event that started in 2017 at the base of Hahns Peak in North Routt County. Running this course started with a few hardcore North Routt locals meeting at the beautiful Cabins at Historic Columbine every 4th of July. From there, they would race to the summit and fire outlook of Hahns Peak, once an active volcano with an elevation of 10,839 & 360 degree panoramic views like no other. Now it’s time to share this amazing course with all of you!
