2019 NUT 100K & 50K

Welcome (back) to the NUT, a 100K and a 50K on the North Umpqua River Trail in Oregon. The 2017 race was cancelled just days before the start due to forest fires on the trails and roads. The repair and rebuilding occurred through 2018 and we are so ready to get you back onto this gorgeous course. These point-to-point courses run almost entirely along the beautiful North Umpqua River in the Umpqua National Forest. The 100K begins at Swiftwater Park and finishes at Lemolo Lake. The 50K starts near the Marsters Bridge and also finishes at Lemolo Lake. The trail winds through old-growth forest Douglas Fir, Hemlock and Sugar Pine, with trees more than 800 hundred years old. You’ll pass moss-covered rock bluffs, fern-covered hillside and run through lush forest past several waterfalls. Both are challenging courses, described as “brutiful”.
