Scurry to the Sea 2026
Scurry to the Sea is a 12 mile running event held on 26 July 2026. The event is organised by Scurry Events and is described as an urban orienteering run that links trails across Edinburgh from the Pentlands to the coast.
The course begins with a short hill run to the top of Allermuir in the Pentlands and then descends toward the coast. Participants follow a route that combines cross country sections, urban orienteering and road running while navigating through a mix of trails and streets. The finish is on the sand at Musselburgh beach.
The event emphasises navigation between different terrain types rather than a single surface. The route takes in hill, trail, urban and beach environments and moves from a hilltop location to a seaside finish. The organiser notes that the event was the original reason for setting up Scurry Events and that it links various trails throughout Edinburgh.
