About the race

Glenmore 24 is a 12/24 hour trail race held in Glenmore Forest near Loch Morlich, Aviemore on 5–6 September 2026. The route uses a predominantly off‑road four mile loop that starts at The Hayfield and follows forest trails beside Loch Morlich.

Distances:

  • 4 miles per loop
  • 400 m short loop option available in the final hour

There is a water stop at about 2 miles and a short hill between miles 2 and 3. Each full four mile lap must be completed within the event time to count; short 400 m loops are measured and recorded with a measuring wheel. The Hayfield acts as a runners welfare area where aid stations can be set up around the perimeter; support crews may service those stations from the perimeter on each lap.

Support crew rules allow one crew member for 12 hour runners and two crew members for 24 hour runners. Support crew must remain within the start–finish area and are not allowed on the course. Safety sweepers patrol the route periodically throughout the event.

A mandatory kit list and recommended kit list are issued in the pre‑race briefing. Mandatory kit items include a foil blanket, water container, food, working mobile with race control number, small first aid kit and a race vest. The use of NSAIDs during the race is prohibited. The organiser’s refund and deferral policy is published with entry information. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
