Chingona Fest

Chingona Fest: Camp & Loop

Where miles, mountains, and mujeres meet. Join us for a weekend that’s more than just miles — it’s a celebration of grit, comunidad, and the kind of campfire connections that linger long after the headlamps switch off.

On Sunday, June 28, 2026, you’ll take on a 6-hour challenge to complete as many loops as your legs (and ganas) can handle within the 6-hour timeframe. Each loop is 4.16 miles with 728 ft of gain, winding through sweet single track trails in the heart of the Angeles National Forest, summiting Mount Hillyer each time you circle. The loop starts and finishes at basecamp where our aid station will be ready to keep you fueled, hydrated, and cheered on — every lap, every time.

Note the cut-off to start the last loop is 11:45 AM.

The Flow

• Saturday, June 27, 2026: Camp check-in opens 2:00 PM – 4:00 PM (no late arrivals). Find your spot, pitch your tent, settle in under the pines. Your campground fee is included in your registration.
• Sunday, June 28, 2026: The loop begins at 7:00 AM, weaving through that sweet single track with your Chingona crew towards Mount Hillyer. Run your heart out until the clock strikes 1:00 PM.

When the loops are done, it’s time for a post-run celebration. Gather for a hearty lunch meal, swap stories, laugh under the pines, and soak up that Chingona magic. You’ll walk away with a finisher’s medal and a keepsake to remember every brave mile and every unstoppable smile. Closing ceremony will end at 5:30 PM, runners will be able to clean-up and depart between 5:30 PM - 8:00 PM.
