Spook Hill Cider & Wine 4 Mile Run

Spook Hill Cider & Wine 4 Mile Run

The rolling, four-mile loop course stays primarily within the confines of the historic town of Burkittsville, MD. You will run up the gentle incline of legendary Spook Hill before turning off the asphalt for a loop through the Boordy Winery Vineyard on the west end of town. While running through the vineyard, you'll be treated to splendid views of South Mountain, painted in its full palette of fall colors. Running through the Historic Union Cemetery and Guyton's former dairy farm in the center of town, participants are treated to sweeping views of the surrounding farmland. A loop through the Distillery Lane Ciderworks orchard on the east end of town brings you to the home stretch. This is a fall race not to be missed as the scenery is second to none! *Note: The vineyard and orchard loops are primarily a grass surface that is not maintained as a footpath so expect typical cross-country conditions on that part of the course. The Cemetery and farm lane portions are loose gravel/asphalt. The owners and operators of the vineyard, orchard and farm have graciously opened their properties to us for this event and this event only. PLEASE DO NOT PRE-RUN THE PRIVATE PORTIONS OF THE COURSE!
