Challenge yourself on some of the most rugged and beautiful terrain the west side of Mount Desert Island has to offer!

Inspired in part by the well known sub-ultra ski mountain races of western Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont (Loon, Cranmore, Cannon, etc.) this route covers similar elevation gain and distance to these classic 10k races but with a devilish amount of roots, rocks, and unpredictable footing.

Description

This is a route designed to run from the our state capitol, Trenton, to the shore. Informally dubbed the Canal to Shore 44, it was inspired by the High Point to Cape May route. Starting at the D & R Canal Parking Area and ending at the Point Pleasant boardwalk, this route will take you through some of NJ's scenic landscapes: trails, horse farms, the Six Flags Wild Safari and then finish with road running as the approach to the shore gets closer.
