Wandering Idiot Festival of Hills
Organized by Wonderland Running
About This Race
This is like no other race you have ever run! Returning in 2026 (Dates TBD)! Taking place on a stunningly beautiful 6,500-acre Coast Range wildscape preserve and farm animal sanctuary in Northern California, The Wandering Idiot is truly unique. Nestled beneath Snow Mountain Wilderness and Mendocino National Forest, you will run through pristine wildscapes with ancient oaks, seldom-visited valleys, and vast breathtaking views. Features an 8.2 mile loop with almost 2,000 feet of vert because it's a Festival of Hills! There will be costumes, light tunnels, music, and mysterious goings-on that can only be experienced, not explained.
