This historic site which has a hillfort at the peak of Mither Tap which dates back to 1000BC will be home to the inaugural Bennachie Ultra which will offer 50k of beautiful paths, trails and amazing 360˚ views around the North East of Scotland.

The route will take in six of the peaks which make up the Bennachie Hills, including Mither Tap, Oxen Craig and Millstone Hill. With over 5000ft of elevation, it will be a challenge, but we're confident you'll find it worthwhile!

A 17.5M trail race is also held on the day. Details here.
