All races meet and end at the Naturalist Cabin at Old Man's Cave, 19852 St. Rt. 664 S in Logan, Ohio.
The 20k, 40k and 60k races start at the Naturalist Cabin. (The 60k trail follows the 20k trail three times; the 40k follows it twice.) The path runs through the Hocking Hills State Park Cottages, onto Route 664, up Steel Hill Road, along Chapel Ridge Road, then into the Hocking Hills State Forest on the Queer Ridge Trail. From here it passes through the Cedar Falls area in Hocking Hills State Park, through the forest to Rose Lake, through the Old Man's Cave campground, over the A-Frame Bridge at Old Man's Cave, past the Naturalist's Cabin at the Old Man's Cave Visitors Center, then up the hill back toward the parking lot for Whispering Cave. Water stops are located at John Glenn Astronomy Park (JGAP), Steele Hill/Chapel Ridge Road, Cedar Falls parking lot, at the beginning of the Campground and at the Naturalist's Cabin. Water stops are manned beginning at 8 a.m. so 60k'ers are invited to "stash" their own water/snacks around the course if that would be helpful to them. Fruit and water are available to 60k'ers at the Naturalist Cabin as they pass by.
