The Moray Coastal Trail is a stunning ultramarathon event that takes runners along one of Scotland's most beautiful coastlines. For 2025, we are excited to introduce a new race distance:
- 50-Mile Ultra: A full journey along the iconic Moray Coastal Trail
- 20-Mile Trail Race (new): A shorter distance showcasing the area's most stunning highlights.
Both routes immerse you in the dramatic beauty and rich heritage of the Moray coastline, renowned for its wide sandy beaches, rugged cliffs, picturesque fishing villages, and some of the finest seafood in the world.
Moray is famous for having some of the best coastline and seafood around. With its wide sandy beaches, dramatic cliffs, coastal formations and attractive fishing villages, it makes for a stunning route for a race. Beginning at the RD's home town of Forres, you soon reach the coastline at Findhorn, famed for its eco-community. From there, a forest overlooking the sea takes you past where the RD got married (this is how much he loves the area!) all the way to Lossiemouth and its epic clifftops, to Spey Bay where you can search for dolphins, past picturesque former fishing villages, and then finishing in Cullen.
