New for 2025 Glentress 4k Gravel Run: This will be ideal if you're new to trail running. Held in conjunction with the Glentress 42k Trail Marathon. 21k Course: "Stunningly Beautiful & Technical" An awesome blend of terrain from hard packed gravel trails, twisting forest singletrack, long winding climbs, exhilarating descents & stunning panoramic viewpoints. With over 600m of ascent, this amazing course is sure to be a classic & one that will be remembered... Climbing high to the top of Glentress Forest, the 21k incorporates exciting sections of the mtb trails. With named sections such as 'The Goat Track' & 'Spooky Woods', we've also added a few of our own; The High Hut, Roller Coaster, Evil Climb & The Home Straight.. Please note this route is provisional & may be subject to change. Updated course details will be available soon. 10k Course: "Tough Route with Stunning Views" The new course climbs 'slightly' higher than previously but the breathtaking views & thrilling descents are certainly worth the effort. With 270m of ascent packed into the initial 6k, this will be quite a challenge! We've added sections of the blue mtb trails which gradually wind their way up through the forest. With numerous switchbacks reaching 'The High Point' of the course will be a leg & lung burner, but it’s well worth the effort as the hard climbing is completed now. Savour the stunning views of the Tweed Valley & enjoy the fantastic sections of descent to the finish. New for 2025 Glentress 4k Gravel Run: This will be ideal if you're new to trail running & maybe find the longer distances or technical trails too daunting for a first attempt. The distance will be approx. 4km incorporating the Multi-User, Ponds & Glen Trails. Aimed more at beginners & the 'fun' type of runner, we'll not be offering prizes for this distance, however you'll still receive a finisher's medal, finish time & position. Under 16 year olds must be accompanied by an adult.
This event is part of Glentress Trail Races.
