About

Celebrating the Ochils, this trail running experience offers all levels of running terrain and difficulty across five distances, from a forest trail 5k, a fast trail marathon and 50k that offers all of the best mix of forest and fell running. Starting at the University of Stirling, run out through Hermitage Wood and Black Hill, along undulating open trails, with the Ochils as your distant viewpoint.
For those running the longer distances, get ready for some exciting climbs and fell trails as you enter the Ochil Hills. Working closely with local partners such as the University, Mountain Rescue, and Future Forest Charity, we'll celebrate the local community and the vast hills of the Ochils.
Should you have any questions relating to the event (including transfering or editing your booking) please contact Maverick on info@maverick-race.com.
