The Pig Race at Blueberry Hill Inn

Get ready for the revival of the 'Pig Race'—a classic Nordic ski event with a legacy dating back to the 1970s, founded by Tony Clark. Our ~7.5, and ~12 km self-timed 'races' (plus a kid’s race!) guarantee jumps, spills, singletrack challenges, agility obstacles, and maybe a touch of early spring mud. Rain or shine, snow or no, the race will go on!

Post-race there will be Pig + Pinyata! Indulge fire-roasted pig plus mac and cheese and other extras, and win prizes for standout vintage ski outfits, epic falls, and more!

The Goshen Gallop at Blueberry Hill Outdoor Center

Since 1978 the Goshen Gallop has invited runners from across Vermont and around the world to tackle either the famous 10 km + or the equally awesome, but more merciful 5 km + run.

Runners looking for an exceptional backcountry course find it here. From lush forest to a stunning surprise view from the south end of Hogback Mountain, the Gallop’s elevation profile and rugged terrain have earned the race the nickname “the toughest 10k in New England.”

Then there’s the victory party. Revel in a relaxed post-race wood-fired pizza party and pond dipping. Camp out or stay over at the Inn if you like.

By participating in the Goshen Gallop you’re contributing to a great cause – the maintenance of the very trails and bridges you run on during the race! All proceeds go to the BHOC.
