The Mt. Spokane Trail Run begins at Selkirk Lodge in Mt. Spokane State Park, near Mead, Washington. Participants can select from a 25K, 10K, 5K, or Kids Fun Run, accommodating both trail runners seeking a substantial mountain challenge and families participating in a shorter race.
The courses follow singletrack trails within the state park, featuring climbs that present a significant challenge for the longer distances. The location is a key attraction: wooded mountain landscapes, expansive scenic overlooks, and a starting point at Selkirk Lodge situated high on Mt. Spokane Park Drive.
