The Experience
Now in its fourth year, the Round Valley Rambler Half Marathon draws approximately 176 runners from nine states, with about 17% returning each year. Set in Park City's high desert, this trail half offers a foot-friendly yet challenging course over buff single and double track at altitudes between 6,500 and 7,100 feet.
The rolling terrain presents a few long, steady climbs followed by fast downhills, keeping the pace honest. The low-key, local atmosphere and small field create an intimate race-day experience, perfect for those seeking a scenic, off-road challenge without the crowds. Runners enjoy high-desert views throughout the course, and the 7K provides a shorter alternative for less experienced trail runners.
