WHAT TO EXPECT

With the Dirt Festival, you can expect a fabulous grassroots race hosted by the Alma Foundation and the Town of Alma, Colorado—one of those rare mountain communities where local pride, volunteer spirit, and genuine hospitality turn a race weekend into a shared celebration.

Camp at the start line in a pristine alpine meadow framed by 14,000-foot peaks and put your endurance and grit to the test on our demanding mountain bike and trail run courses. Prefer to focus on one discipline at a time? Ride on Saturday, run on Sunday—your weekend, your challenge.

Discounted Camping: Athletes get 50% off camping with race entry. Camping opens Thursday morning, but early arrival is welcome with a camping pass (email us in advance!).

Please bring your own water and camping essentials to be a comfy, happy camper. Porta Potties will be available in the meadow.
