Braemar (Aberdeenshire, Scotland, United Kingdom)
62โkm
Held in June by High Terrain Events, the Cairngorms Ultra Trail starts from the Mar Lodge estate, a few kilometers from Braemar, in Aberdeenshire. Two formats are offered: a main course of approximately 60 km and a shorter version of approximately 48 km. In the heart of Cairngorms National Park, the largest in the United Kingdom, runners make their way up wild glens such as Glen Derry, pass by Derry Lodge and the Linn of Dee, and cross fords amid moorland, bogs and pine forests. Remoteness, wide-open spaces and the changeable weather of the Scottish Highlands are all part of this race's charm. In Wales, the Ultra-Trail Snowdonia Eryri by UTMBยฎ offers another great British adventure.
