Race #3 of the new SoCalTrail "Trail ½ Series" - 4 half-marathons in 2025 with chances to win SoCalTrail Passes!!
Welcome to the Boney Mountain Half Marathon and 7k Trail Run!!
This event historically sells out...
Join us for an epic adventure through the beautiful Santa Monica Mountains. This popular race starts in Rancho Sierra Vista | Satwiwa National Park and explores Point Mugu State Park's backcountry canyons and climbs. Get ready for creek crossings, single track climbs and ocean views on one of the most beautiful, and challenging, half-marathon courses around; or take on the action-packed 7k short course deep within Sycamore Canyon featuring multiple creek crossings under Boney Mountain's boulder peaks.
Take away a nice race shirt, locally-made finisher medals, and amazing race photography that's included with your entry. The Boney Mountain Trail Run experience includes delicious vegan-friendly breakfast, sports massage treatment by Vision for Enrichment and an awards ceremony for 7k and half-marathon age group runners.
