Kinnoull Hill Race
The event takes place on 21 May 2026 in Perth, with the race starting from Branklyn Gardens car park, just off Dundee Road.
The course is a one-lap route of approx. 7 km with 243 m of climb. The route climbs to the stone table at the top of Kinnoull Hill, drops and climbs again to Kinnoull Tower, then descends and follows undulating tracks back across the lower hill to finish at Branklyn Gardens. Runners should take care on narrower sections where tree roots are present.
Registration details note that race numbers are collected from Kinnoull Church Hall, Dundee Road, Perth PH2 7EY. There are limited changing facilities and no showers at the hall, so competitors are advised to arrive in running gear where possible. There are no entries on the night and on-line entries close on Thursday 14 May 2026. Entry price until that date is £4.00; a service fee applies.
Preferred parking options are Riverside car park (behind the church hall) and Bellwood Park. The start at Branklyn Gardens is a short walk or jog from the church hall.
Competitors must be 16 years of age or over on the day. The race follows Scottish Hill Runners' rules; as a minimum runners should carry full body cover and a whistle. Prizes are awarded in specified male, female, and veteran categories. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
