About the Slate Valley Scramble
Join Slate Valley Trails (SVT) on Saturday, August 10, 2024 for the fifth annual Slate Valley Scramble trail run race and fundraiser! Trail runners can choose from an 8k and half-marathon, which will be held entirely on single-track and double-track trails here in beautiful southwestern Vermont. A free kids fun run will take place following both events to encourage the whole family to get out and enjoy SVT’s trails.
Races will offer runners a well-maintained, variable terrain, wooded course consisting of primarily single-track trail. While both courses will have some flat terrain and rolling hills, there will be hills and a few sustained climbs. Runners will be rewarded with occasional stunning views of Vermont’s “Slate Valley”. Join us for what is sure to be a fun day in the Vermont woods!
