West Highland Way Race
About this event
The West Highland Way Race follows Scotland's iconic 152-kilometre trail from Milngavie to Fort William, traversing some of the Highlands' most dramatic terrain. The route skirts Loch Lomond's eastern shore before crossing the vast, exposed moorland of Rannoch Moor and threading through Glen Coe's storied valley. With over 3,400 metres of climbing, runners tackle rocky paths and technical descents while contending with Scotland's notoriously unpredictable mountain weather. The finish beneath Ben Nevis, Britain's highest peak, marks the culmination of a legendary challenge that demands serious mountain experience and thorough preparation. This June race attracts accomplished ultra runners worldwide, all seeking to test themselves on one of Britain's most respected single-stage mountain ultras.
