From the Organizer

Two distances. Lake views below. Mountain views above. One unforgettable trail party!

Sassquad Trail Running and the New York-New Jersey Trail Conference are proud to present Squatchy Hooky: Lake to Summit 5K/10K on Saturday, June 6, 2026! This trail party starts and finishes at Parking Field #4 inside Rockland Lake State Park, giving runners two completely different adventures in one beautiful corner of the Hudson Valley... The 5K is a smooth and scenic paved loop around Rockland Lake. The paved path circles the water with wide-open views and gentle terrain, making it perfect for runners, walkers, and families. This course is fully accessible and includes a wheelchair division, welcoming athletes of all abilities to be part of the trail party. The 10K is where things get a little more Squatchy: this trail run/hike heads up the rocky and rugged Long Path, climbing through forest and stone ledges to the spectacular summit of Hook Mountain. At the top, runners are rewarded with sweeping 360-degree views of the Hudson River and the surrounding Hudson Valley before turning around and descending back to the lake. Please visit our website for course map, gpx files, and more!
