Please check these as there will generally be no further information emailed to participants prior to the event.

Glentress Forest is described as the 'Gateway to the Tweed Valley Forest Park'. Perhaps more renowned for its mountain biking, Glentress also offers a superb array of forest trails, making it a fantastic location for trail running. The area features mile upon mile of waymarked trails including forest walks, woodland single track and heather clad moorland.

Glentress 10k Trail Race

Date: Saturday 19th November 2022        Start Time: 1100 (TBC)


This will be ideal if you are looking to get into trail running and a great way to explore all the unique aspects of the forest without the more testing climbs. However, with 330m of ascent it’s still a challenging course…not forgetting the exhilarating descent to the finish.

Glentress 21k Trail Half Marathon

Date: Saturday 19th November 2022        Start Time: 1000 (TBC)


The 21k distance will be exploring further into the more remote parts of the forest. This route will incorporate sections of the Tower Trail and the Black graded MTB route, climbing high to the top of Glentress Forest, offering some stunning panoramic viewpoints. Featuring a fantastic variety of terrain from hard packed gravel trails to twisting forest singletrack and with 750m of ascent, this amazing course offers something for everyone.

Location: Glentress Peel visitor centre is in the heart of the Tweed Valley Forest Park between the small Borders towns of Peebles and Innerleithen, all just one hour's drive away from Edinburgh.

Venue: Glentress Peel Visitor Centre, nr Peebles, EH45 8NB

All routes will be fully marked so no navigation experience is necessary.
