This challenging course winds through rugged terrain under the moonlight, demanding participants to navigate with precision and confidence.

The race starts from the northern end of Grantown on Spey, where parking facilities will be provided. Public amenities such as shops and restaurants make it easy to prepare before the event. Under-14s need an accompanying adult or proof of night orienteering expertise.

For medical assistance, Raigmore Hospital in Inverness is the designated emergency location.
