Bib pickup & directions

The Hyner Half starts and finishes at Hyner Run State Park, 86 Hyner Park Rd, North Bend, PA 17760. Bib pickup begins at 7:45 am on race morning.

Since Hyner is a remote area, find Lock Haven and use this as your reference. There is one road leading out of Lock Haven towards Hyner...this is route 120 West. Starting from Lock Haven University, follow 120 West for about twenty miles. Cross the Hyner Bridge, continue another ~1.5 miles then turn right onto Hyner Run Road. Follow this just under half a mile to a left on Hyner Park Rd. Follow this road to the race parking which is near the pool.

Please take the time to print out directions and study the map before you head out.  Cell phone service is extremely limited/non-existent in the area and it is very remotely populated.


 

start time

The race begins at 9 am at Hyner Run State Park. Please be sure to head to the start line by 8:50 at the latest.
