Ragnar Trail McDowell Mountain – AZ, presented by Salomon, is the overnight desert trail running adventure that southwest runners cannot miss. Held in the McDowell Mountain Range, just northeast of Scottsdale, teams will conquer the course at McDowell Mountain Regional Park.
When you're not soaking up Mother Nature on the trails, you'll be camping overnight at Ragnar Village where you can expect food, s'mores, bonfires, entertainment and a nonstop festival atmosphere. The goal of Ragnar is to conquer something hard while playing even harder. So gather seven up-for-anything friends and pack your running shoes, tent, twinkle lights and maybe even a tutu and find your inner WILD at Ragnar Trail.
With over 50 miles of breathtakingly diverse trails, this area provides majestic mountain views, epic desert flora and fauna, and some seriously fun trails! Swooping descents, rocky climbs, and smooth star-lit, sandy washes await you and your team. You may even catch a glimpse of the elusive Javelina while you are serenaded by the songs of howling coyotes during your run. With one of the most transformative sunrises in the series, this course will not disappoint! Cool desert air at night, warm, clear sunny skies during the day, and miles of epic trail running are all part of the deal!
