🍂 Event Overview

It's RidgeWalk time! We are very excited to welcome you back for our annual Fall RidgeWalk and Run event for our 33rd year!

The 33rd Annual RidgeWalk & Run Event, located in beautiful southwestern New York State takes place each fall as the hillsides are turning into a kaleidoscope of rich reds, oranges and yellows. Our event encompasses many events so if you are looking for a casual stroll through the woods or prefer a competitive long run we are just what you are looking for.
