Choose your ultimate challenge from six distances, including a formidable 110km single-stage epic, a more approachable two-day 110km journey with included camping, or accessible 60km, 50km, 25km, and 12km routes—all designed with relaxed cut-offs to prioritize adventure over outright speed. As a UTMB World Series indexed event, you’ll traverse fully marked trails from Inverness to Fort Augustus, supported by well-stocked aid stations and a vibrant competitor community, all while earning points towards the prestigious Great British Slam.
