2027 Sponsorship Opportunities
Florida Roots Trail Race
at Fort Clinch
January 23, 2027 · Fort Clinch State Park · Amelia Island, FL
The Race
More Than a Race—
A Gathering
Three Fernandina Beach friends started this race to share the trails they love inside Fort Clinch State Park. Every loop takes you through canopied singletrack, past the historic fort walls and along the coastal shore.
Seasoned ultra runners line up next to first-time trail racers, and we celebrate every one of them, from the winners to the final finisher.
100% of profits are donated to Florida State Parks
Presenting Sponsor
Thank you to the Amelia Island Tourist Development Council for helping us bring more runners to Fort Clinch, and to the island we're lucky to call home.
