Glamis Castle Festive Trail Runs

Glamis Castle Festive Trail Runs take place within the private grounds of Glamis Castle in Angus, Scotland. The event offers several trail distances and route maps are provided for each course, including a two-lap option for the 10 mile route.

Distances include:

  • Festive Family 1 mile (ages 3 to 11); adult guardian runs free
  • Festive 5 mile trail run
  • Festive 10 mile trail run, run as two laps

The event is canicross friendly for the 5 mile and 10 mile races. One well controlled dog per runner is allowed and dogs must remain on a lead at all times. Live chip-timing is provided by Timing Up North, delivering instant race results.

All finishers receive a bespoke event medal intended for a tree, Wild Deer merchandise, and festive snacks; children receive a selection box. A custom event T shirt is available for an additional cost of £14.00. Parking is available on site for participants and spectators.

The venue includes woodland and parkland landscapes and historic castle architecture, allowing runners to complete courses entirely within the castle estate grounds. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
