About

The Buffalo Run brings trail runners to Antelope Island for a striking endurance experience framed by wide-open views of the Great Salt Lake, rolling singletrack, and desert grasslands. A defining feature of the course is its wild setting, where runners may encounter roaming bison as they move through the island landscape, adding a memorable sense of place and adventure. Known for its welcoming community atmosphere as much as its scenery, the event has grown into a popular Mountain West trail gathering while retaining a rugged, accessible spirit. The longer 50K and 50-mile races offer a scenic but engaging test on undulating terrain, blending runnable stretches with the demands of exposed island trails.
