Cabin Fever 50K

Embrace the winter wonderland of New River Gorge National Park on the Cabin Fever 50K, set for February 20, 2027. This challenging ultra trail race stretches from downtown Fayetteville to Hawks Nest State Park, offering runners a unique blend of scenic ridgelines and riverfront paths. Start your journey in front of the courthouse at 9:00am and navigate through high-altitude single-track trails with sweeping views before descending near the iconic New River Gorge Bridge.
The course is meticulously designed for endurance enthusiasts, featuring three fully stocked aid stations and one hydration station to support you throughout the 10-hour cutoff. Along the way, pass by stunning waterfalls and enjoy a mix of forested paths and open vistas that highlight the park's winter beauty.
Post-race amenities include free shuttle service from Hawks Nest State Park back to Fayetteville for those who complete their race on time. Participants can also look forward to prizes and awards given to the top 10 male and female finishers, as well as a custom Cabin Fever 50K medal upon completion.
Registration fees vary based on early or late sign-ups; secure your spot by December 21 for guaranteed race shirts and full refund options. Proceeds from this event support Adventure Appalachia's mission to provide empowering outdoor experiences in the New River Gorge region, breaking down barriers to adventure for all participants.
