River Ridge Challenge 2025
A community-driven event! -- A portion of the proceeds will be donated to Friends of Bellevue State Park to help continue their amazing work on park improvements!
The toughest 😉 (and most rewarding) challenge in Bellevue is BACK!
Saturday, April 26th
Starts & Ends at River Ridge Brewing, 303 S Riverview St, Bellevue, Iowa
Race begins at 9 AM
As we always say, start prepping those legs for that hill and those arms for those well-earned beer curls because it’s time for the 5-kish... non-qualifying... non-timed River Ridge Challenge!
The Route: Choose Your Challenge!
🥳 The Classic Route (1.78 miles)
Walk or run from the brewery to Felderman Park.
Make a loop, enjoy a complimentary brew, snap a selfie, and take in the nature views.
Head back to the brewery, cross the unofficial finish line, and celebrate with another cold one!
🤩 The FULL River Ridge Challenge (3.19 miles)
After Felderman Park, cross the bridge into Bellevue State Park.
Face the Quarry Trail! Climb up, touch the "YOU MADE IT" sign, and conquer Bellevue’s biggest hill.
Make your way back to the brewery, where a medal and an ice-cold beer await you. You earned it.
Then, stick around for food, live music, and post-race brews on the patio! ☀️🎵
Came for the challenge. Stayed for the beer. 🍺😏
