The Glencoe Marathon Gathering is a challenging trail running event through the dramatic mountain landscape of the Scottish Highlands. The event features Marathon and Half Marathon routes, with both journeys taking runners through Glencoe and the surrounding mountains on predominantly off road terrain.

Marathon runners follow an ancient route from the foot of Ben Nevis towards Glencoe, tackling a demanding combination of mountain trails, steep climbs and remote Highland terrain. Half Marathon runners join the longer route at Kinlochleven, with both distances taking on the renowned Devil’s Staircase before continuing through the spectacular surrounding landscape.

The event is designed for runners seeking a demanding alternative to a conventional road race, with significant elevation and exposed mountain terrain adding to the challenge. Panoramic views across the Highlands and the journey through one of Scotland’s best known mountain landscapes make the Glencoe Marathon Gathering a distinctive destination trail event.
