Eighth Running!

We added the virtual Raven 100k Challenge in 2020 and by popular demand we are continuing to run the virtual challenge. Read about this month-long endurance challenge complete with badges and custom finisher woodallions!

Raven Rocks Run is the first new race at Ward Pound Reservation in nearly 20 years. The Raven Rocks 10k Run is a challenging course with great views, rocky climbs, ridgeline trails, hilly meadows, ravines, and the site of the former fire tower.

The race aims to help raise money to bring back and operate the fire tower at its former site so a whole new generation can enjoy the sweeping 360 degree views of Long Island Sound, Connecticut, the Hudson Highlands, and New York City it will afford.

Race was run the first time in 2015.
