Meall A'bhuachaille Hill Race

Meall a’Bhuachaille Hill Race, organised by Highland Hill Runners, is held at Badaguish Outdoor Centre near Aviemore in the Scottish Highlands. The 13-kilometre course features about 720 metres of climb, taking runners from forest tracks up to the summit of Meall a’Bhuachaille (810 m) before a ridge to Creagan Gorm and Craiggowrie, then a fast, boggy descent back to the finish, with views on a clear day. The route is mainly unmarked, with hill marshals at checkpoints and navigation skills required in poor visibility.

The event, licenced by Scottish Athletics, offers a range of open and age-category prizes and emphasizes environmental awareness, mandatory kit: waterproofs, hat, gloves, whistle, compass, map, and on-the-day registration options. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
