Cross country race at Quantico Marine Corps Base, Quantico, VA

The absolutely stellar trail network on the Quantico Marine Corps Base is only open to civilian use on a few occasions each year…and this is one of them! This VERY fun course includes 9 miles of twisty singletrack, challenging hills, and long fire roads. The trail network at Quantico is wonderfully maintained and one of the best in the Northern Virginia area!

We are not permitted to post the course map on the website but we will be hosting a few pre-rides of the course in the weeks leading up to the race. When available in July 2012, the pre-ride schedule will be posted in this space. The race course starts in the field between the softball fields and the CDC (Child Development Center). See directions. You will need your driver's license to enter the base. The Military Police may also ask for proof of auto insurance when you drive on base.
