Race to the Rock - 5K Run

The race takes place at Chimney Rock Village, starting from the Best View Motel. Participants traverse through Chimney Rock State Park, ascending a challenging switchback road. The finish line offers a breathtaking panoramic view of the Hickory Nut Gorge and Lake Lure. Post-race, all participants and spectators are required to exit the mountain, but participants can return for free once the park reopens. Trails will remain closed until the reopening. This event promises a memorable and picturesque challenge for endurance sports enthusiasts.
