Cape Wrath Ultra
Fort William, United Kingdom • 17-24 May 2026
Cape Wrath Ultra and Cape Wrath 100
The Cape Wrath Ultra® is a 400 km, eight-day ultra-running expedition through north-west Scotland. The route links ancient footpaths and remote trails and passes through landscapes including Knoydart, Kintail, Torridon and Assynt before reaching the finish at Cape Wrath. The terrain includes lochs, wide open glens and rugged mountain sections.
Each day concludes in tented camps where participants recover, refuel and rest. Camps provide a shared expedition atmosphere for evening meals, equipment care and overnight rest before the next day of travel.
A shorter event, the Cape Wrath 100, follows the final stages of the same route over three days and retains the expedition camp format and scenery of the full event.
Event formats:
- 400 km, eight-day expedition
- Cape Wrath 100, three-day final stages
Next event dates are 17th - 24th May 2026. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
