Uphill only route to the summit of Glas Tulaichean (1051m) on good double track with a few stream crossings & the last few hundred meters to the top on open hill. A land rover will take a bag to the top for each competitor so when you finish you can collect your warm clothes, pause to enjoy the spectacular views (on a clear day!) & jog back down for post-race tea & prize-giving. Please bring your own cups for tea & coffee to cut down on plastic waste.  Pre-entry will help the organisers in planning for numbers but entries will also be available on the day from 11:00 & will close at 12:40pm (Bag drop closes at 12:20 to allow time to transport your gear to the top). You must carry full waterproof body cover including hat & gloves and entries are restricted to over 17s.

In the event of poor weather an alternative course may be run at the Race Organiser’s discretion.

This year we are pleased to host the Senior Home International.  Good luck to all the teams!
