Join us for the Mount Rainier Half Marathon & Trail Events!

Crystal Mountain, located near Enumclaw, WA, offers a captivating and rugged landscape, perfect for a half marathon adventure. Set in the heart of the Cascade Range, the course will take runners through a dynamic blend of towering evergreen forests, vibrant alpine meadows, and sweeping ridgelines with awe-inspiring views of Mount Rainier. Expect a mix of gentle and challenging inclines, each leading to stunning panoramas and, potentially, the serene beauty of alpine lakes reflecting the towering peaks around them.


As the trail winds through moss-draped conifer forests, runners will be shaded by ancient Douglas firs and cedars. These shaded sections will give way to breathtaking ridgelines and open expanses, where expansive views of nearby valleys and distant mountain ranges await. Underfoot, the terrain will vary—ranging from soft, well-worn dirt paths to rocky outcrops that will demand focus and agility.


Along the course, participants will be immersed in the refreshing mountain air, the scent of pine, and the sounds of trickling streams. The diversity of the terrain ensures that every mile offers something new—whether it’s an unexpected glimpse of wildflowers in bloom or the sparkling waters of a hidden alpine lake.


While we’re still finalizing the exact course details, registration is now open, and we can’t wait to welcome you to this unforgettable event. This race promises not only to challenge your endurance but to immerse you in the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest. Every mile will reveal something new, from dramatic alpine vistas to peaceful mountain lakes. Get ready for a truly unique running experience through one of Washington's most iconic wilderness areas.
