Balloch Castle Country Park 5K, 10K & Half Marathon is organised by Up and Running Events on the southern shores of Loch Lomond.
All three distances explore the grounds of Balloch Castle Country Park, following scenic woodland trails and open parkland with views across Loch Lomond. The varied park setting provides options for newer runners over 5K as well as those looking for the longer Half Marathon challenge.
The courses are fully marked and marshalled, with water stations and medical support available. All three races are professionally chip timed and every finisher receives a medal, with an event village providing the focus for runners and spectators before and after the races.
