About the event

Immerse yourself in the scenic beauty of Leavenworth, Washington, known as "little Bavaria," for the annual Leavenworth Trail Fest on May 29, 2027. This trail running celebration offers a range of courses to suit all levels—beginners can enjoy the family-friendly Town 5k, while more experienced runners tackle the challenging Ski Hill 50k or Skyline 25K.
The event kicks off at the base of Leavenworth Ski Hill Area and features routes that wind through the stunning Cascades Mountain range. The 50k course loops twice around Tumwater Mountain, offering breathtaking alpine views and testing terrain from forest service roads to steep climbs. Meanwhile, the Skyline 25K includes a punch climb up "The Nut," leading runners to high points where they can earn Vert King, Queen, or Monarch titles.
Participants will experience vibrant wildflower displays along the trails and enjoy panoramic vistas of Eastern Cascades' unique alpine desert landscape. The event not only celebrates running but also fosters community spirit with activities such as a kids race, hammerschlagen, an inflatable costume race, and live music performances at the base lodge.
Post-race festivities include complimentary meals for 25k and 50k runners, snacks for all participants, and opportunities to relax in Bavarian-style surroundings. Leavenworth Trail Fest is supported by local partners like Fall City Kombucha and Brooks Running, ensuring a rewarding experience with swag items and finisher awards.
Join the trail running community this May as you challenge yourself on scenic routes while enjoying the picturesque setting of little Bavaria.
