Event details
The Longest Day 24 Hour Adventure Race takes place Saturday July 25 to Sunday July 26, 2026, in Elizabethtown, New York, in the Adirondack Mountains. Entry for the main event is listed at $284.50 (includes a $14.50 fee). Registration opens January 1, 2026. The event format is a 24-hour team adventure race. Solo entries are not permitted. Teams must consist of 2 to 4 members.
Course and logistics
The course uses a mix of single-track mountain biking, navigation through forests and over mountains, and wilderness packrafting. Organizers will provide pre-plotted maps and include strategic route-planning elements. Many checkpoints on the course will be optional; a smaller number of mandatory checkpoints are set to keep teams together at the finish. Boats and packrafts will not be provided by the race organization; teams are required to supply their own packrafts. A post-race feed is provided. The 2026 edition takes place in a new region of Adirondack National Park territory. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
