About the race
The Trotternish Ridge Race is a challenging 27km mountain running event held on the Isle of Skye, Scotland, from Flodigary to Storr Lochs along the scenic Trotternish Ridge. Featuring approximately 2000m of ascent and descent, the course is unmarked, requiring competitors to navigate between unmanned checkpoints using map and compass skills. Limited to 75 participants due to environmental restrictions, the race demands prior experience in similar long-distance mountain events.
Organized by the Skye and Lochalsh Running Club, the event includes bus transport to the start and from the finish, with marshals and water stations at key points. A prize giving and light refreshments conclude the race. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
