Glencoe Marathon

WildFox Events Ltd stages the Glencoe Marathon Gathering, an off road trail event in the Scottish Highlands. The 2026 edition takes place on Sunday 6th September 2026.

There are two route options:

  • Marathon: ancient mountain route from the foot of Ben Nevis to Glencoe.
  • Half Marathon: joins the full route at Kinlochleven and includes the Devil’s Staircase.

Both routes run on mountain and trail terrain and offer panoramic views of the surrounding Highland landscape. Organisers supply route maps for the 2026 courses. The full marathon follows an established mountain passage through the hills, while the half marathon meets that route part way and continues over the same upland sections.

Information about the event format and the 2026 course layouts is made available by the organiser. The event focuses on off road trail running across varied mountain terrain and the specific route features such as Kinlochleven and the Devil’s Staircase. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
