About This Race

A 154 km (96 mile) point-to-point ultramarathon following the West Highland Way from Milngavie near Glasgow to Fort William. The route traverses a wide range of Highland terrain including forest tracks, lochside paths, open moorland and high passes such as the Devil’s Staircase. Elevation is substantial and spread across the course, with long climbs and extended descents rather than short hills. Underfoot conditions vary from firm trail to rocky mountain path, with exposure possible on higher ground. Checkpoints and support arrangements are defined by the organiser’s official race structure.
