Cedar Ridge Hilly Half Race

Join us for the 6th annual Hilly Half 21.1K, 10K, & 5K at Cedar Ridge Camp – a scenic race that winds through the Madawaska Highlands. Don’t let the views fool you: this race is easy on the eyes but hard on the thighs. With every climb and descent, you’ll earn that unforgettable finish line moment… and a well-deserved plunge into the refreshing Lake Wanamaker!

The 2026 Hilly Half race weekend runs from September 25th to 27th, with the 5K, 10K and Half Marathon (21.1K) races happening on Saturday, September 26th. All events are chip-timed for precision, and weekend accommodations are available.

their families by making it possible for underprivileged kids to reach their
full potential through camp experiences.
