This is the ONLY official race allowed in Wildwood Regional Park, located within the beautiful city of Thousand Oaks. The 1,765 acre park features a diverse multi-use trail system across ridgelines and into lush valleys and is home to over 250 plant species and an abundant home to a variety of birds, reptiles and animals. The stunning vistas are not to be missed! The race staging area is at the Wildflower Playfields, directly across the street from Wildwood Regional Park. The race raises money to be used for scholarships, the DreamCatcher Playground Project, and other capital improvement projects for the Conejo Recreation and Park District.

Course Information:

The race will start on Avenida De Los Arboles and then head East into Wildwood Neighborhood Park. The course will narrow quickly so get your placing early. The trail drops into the bottom of the Canyon with multiple slippery stream crossings, there are small foot bridges if you would like to use them. The course was carefully crafted to show off some of Wildwood Parks finest assets, runners will pass Paradise Falls (an excellent photo opportunity), our beautiful shaded picnic areas, Skunk Hollow and the Thousand Oaks Sewage Treatment Plant (joy). The warm up is now over and the serious trail running begins with the ascent of Lizard Rock, a 550 foot elevation rise in a little less than a mile. The course then descends onto the Stagecoach Trail, a treacherous, rocky and steep path for about a half mile. Next a fun excursion on the Moonridge Trail and all the stairs you would ever want to go up and down. At Mile 5.3 you will realize you are back at the bottom of the canyon and will use your last mile and last bit of energy climbing Indian Creek Trail and then finally you will pass under Avenida De Los Arboles through a tunnel and into Wildflower Park for a dramatic finish.
