Running in Mammoth Lakes

November 29, 2023

Mammoth Lakes is a playground for every athlete in every season.

The best way to explore and appreciate this amazing place is to put on your running shoes and head out on the numerous trails.

There’s such a variety of terrain and topography, not just offering vertical feet but providing endless possibilities in every direction. Running in Mammoth Lakes is ideal for elite, world-class runners like members of the Mammoth Track Club, but also for recreational runners who can take more time to enjoy the views and beauty of Mammoth Lakes and the surrounding area. The Town of Mammoth Lakes is a proud sponsor of the Mammoth Track Club. For more running information and maps, visit MammothTrails.org.
