The Kinloss Running Festival Back Yard Ultra takes place within the Kinloss Barracks Training Area on the Moray coast. Runners complete a 6.7K loop every hour on the hour, continuing until only one competitor remains. The event features a mixed terrain day course across rough grass, gravel trails, tarmac and sand before switching to a flat road and runway loop overnight.

Organised as part of the Kinloss Running Festival, the race starts and finishes at the event Race Village within the barracks. Participants may have one support crew member and use a personal gazebo or tent, while the Race Village provides facilities including catering, first aid, toilets and a communal aid station.

The Kinloss Running Festival Back Yard Ultra offers runners a distinctive endurance challenge, combining the unique setting of an active military training area with the tactical demands of the Back Yard Ultra format on varied terrain and former airfield runways.
