Alpine Epic

Discover singletrack paradise at the Alpine Epic – an XC mountain bike endurance legacy race brought to you by Cascade Cream Puff as a fundraiser for the Oakridge Trails Alliance!

Featuring world class, pristine singletrack on a 50, 25 or 15 mile course on the Alpine Trail network, also known as the “crown jewel” mountain bike destination in Oakridge! This race winds through open beargrass meadows, stunning vistas and old growth groves, showcasing unsurpassed wildflower displays and lush green carpets of PNW rainforests.

THE COURSE:

The course will feature the classic 50-Mile Cascade Cream Puff legacy loop, including the North Alpine, Tire Mountain and Cloverpatch trail segments. The 25-Mile “long course” Oregon XC Series option follows the same road climb up 1910, but will route participants down Alpine “proper” from the trail entry at Kate’s Cut-in, on the main trail system. The 15-Mile “short course” Oregon XC Series option will cut in from the initial gravel road climb on 1910 at 683, and riders will jump on singletrack above Buckhead Shelter and dive into the lower Alpine trail to the finish.
