Great Glen Ultra 2026

The Great Glen Way forms the route: a foot race from Fort William to Inverness, with the Great Glen Ultra sending solo runners across a section of the Highlands. It is described as “one of Scotland's toughest running challenges,” a fitting description rather than marketing. The appeal is straightforward and demanding: keep moving through “some of Scotland's most stunning scenery” until the finish in Inverness. Expect to be joined by other solo runners who appreciate long quiet stretches, consistent problem-solving, and a course where the landscape is both a reward and a challenge.
