Scurry Around Cramond Island 5 mile run
The run on 28 May 2027 is a multi terrain 5 mile evening event around Edinburgh's tidal Cramond Island. The route includes an out-and-back island crossing of about a mile and offers views across the River Forth toward Edinburgh and the Forth Bridges.
The course is clearly marked and marshaled and follows an undulating mixed terrain route. It starts by the boardwalk beach club cafe, includes a short off-road loop in the field behind the Roman Fort and Cramond Kirk, then descends toward the island crossing. After a short hill climb across the island participants circumnavigate the beach at the rear of the island and return along the same route to the finish line.
Surface conditions vary along the route and include tarmac, uneven tarmac, grass, single track path, sandy beach and rocky sections. Depending on weather and tide conditions, puddles can be expected on the causeway. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
