San Pasqual Valley Trail Race

February 1, 2025

Welcome to Wine Country and the 8th Annual San Pasqual Valley Trail Race.  This race is as scenic as it gets in San Diego County. Regardless of which distance you choose (there are 3), runners will be treated to epic views as they race along the vineyards and orange groves of San Pasqual Valley.

The 10K is considered to be a relatively flat course, while the Half Marathon and 20 Mile options will summit Raptor Ridge, not once but TWICE, in this out and back course. 

There is a chance this race will make you hate running, but fall in love at the same time. The views are definitely worth the effort, and are second to none once you reach the top. 

 

Wine at the finish line!! That's right... You read that correctly! We have partnered up with some of the local vineyards, to do a FREE wine tasting at the finish line. 

This event is limited to 450 runners.
