FLRC Challenge: Lime Hollow

HomeSwagCoursesPrizesTimingRules | 100K Ultra Challenge


The 4-mile Lime Hollow course starts at the Lime Hollow Nature Center off McLean Road, on the way to Cortland. It’s a bit of a drive from Ithaca, but the trails are so scenic—there’s even outdoor art!—that we recommend running them twice if you want some more miles.

Course Instructions

Start at the sign in the Lime Hollow Nature Center parking lot.
