Welcome to The Raven, a hauntingly beautiful 13.5-mile trail race through the heart of Bald Eagle State Forest, PA — where rugged climbs, winding singletrack, and dense Pennsylvania forests test your resolve. Whether you’re chasing a new challenge or just trying to outrun your doubts, The Raven is calling.

Inspired by Edgar Allan Poe’s chilling masterpiece, this race is more than just miles — it’s an experience. The twisting trails of Poe Valley mirror the eerie rhythm of Poe’s poetry: dark pines, rocky ascents, and the ever-present feeling that nature is watching.

Just as the Raven’s haunting refrain echoed through the chamber, your footsteps will echo along ridgelines, under towering hardwoods, and past still mountain streams.

Race Highlights

  • 13.5 miles of remote, technical Pennsylvania singletrack
  • 3,000 feet of climbing — punchy ascents, ridge scrambles, and rolling elevation
  • Unique Raven-themed finisher awards
  • Well-stocked aid stations with hydration, fuel, and support
  • Post-race gathering to swap stories — and maybe a poem or two
