Mountain of the month: Creag Meagaidh
| Entry Fee | £95.00 |
To enter you must first Log In or Register your Details with SiEntries.
New for 2025, this is our monthly dose of mountain adventure. Every month we will choose a new objective, building up through the summer towards a bigger final challenge.
The format is simple, block out the second Saturday of each month in your diary, then join our experienced guides and a friendly team of runners to enjoy a great day in the mountains!
The groups will never be more than 5 runners per guide so you can be sure of being in good hands.
Route
The circuit of the three Creag Meagaidh munros begins with a steep climb, out of the birch forest and up onto the ridge. This gets most of the climbing for the day out of the way and leaves 10km of high level running on a stunning, grassy ridge line. Close to the centre of Scotland, this ridge gives views of summits in all directions. From here the trail drops down into the spectacular Coire Ardair and along undulating single track trails back to the start.
We expect this to be something like a 4 hour run.
21km 1200m ascent
Highest point 1130 meters
Transport
We want these days to be as accessible as possible, so where possible we can arrange a pick up from nearby public transport links. We will also strongly encourage lift sharing within the team to reduce the travel footprint.
Alternative plans
As we all know from planning mountain adventures in Scotland, the success of the day relies on favourable weather forecasts and an adaptable approach. We can’t guarantee good weather for these adventures, which means we can’t guarantee that it will be sensible to complete the routes as planned. However, our guides have huge experience of running throughout Scotland, so we will always be able to plan an alternative route, if we need to, that makes the best of the day and gives everyone a great adventure.
