Lone Wolf Scotland 2027

Lone Wolf Scotland 2027 is a 24 hour endurance event held at Dalkeith Park with a meeting point at Dalkeith House in Dalkeith, Scotland. The event uses a looped course through forest and woodland on undulating track terrain.

The format requires runners to complete a 6.7 km loop every hour and finish each lap within 60 minutes to continue. Time left after a completed lap may be used for rest or refuelling. On the 24th lap the final return to the finish line determines the overall winner; in the event of a tie the first runner back on the final lap is declared the winner. The event recognises one male and one female champion.

Available distance options include:

  • 10k
  • Half marathon
  • Marathon
  • Ultra marathon

Facilities at the event base include a cafe, a large room for changing and resting, toilets, water points, a first aid station, onsite paid parking, a kettle, a small fridge and a microwave. Dogs on leads are allowed and spectators may watch from the start and finish area. The event is for participants aged 18 and over. Ticket holders secure their place on purchase; refunds are not available after ticket purchase. If an event is cancelled the ticket can be transferred to another Lone Wolf event. Phone signal may be poor in parts of the forest. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
