Route Description:
Starting a short walk into the village on the high street, the race follows a riverside footpath and farm tracks to the foot of the Law. The ascent is a steep rock scramble up the east ridge on the edge of the old quarry followed by a fast grassy descent west then back on to farm tracks. Over a bridge and up to Pencraig Woods for a final kicker followed by a long fast descent back to East Linton. The race will finish within the Gala field. Though any roads crossed will either be closed, marshalled or quiet, please take care and follow marshall instructions at all times. The outgoing route involves a wade across the River Tyne which is usually no more than a welcome cooling but sometimes becomes a raging torrent forcing a course detour by the footbridge.

Route – Map

Trail or studded running shoes advised.

Start: 3pm Start. Registration open 1.00pm - 2.30pm with Entries on the Day available.

The race is part of the East Linton Gala. Please stay to enjoy this local community day. 

We would encourage you if possible to use the train and have timed the race to suit if travelling from Waverley. Otherwise, please cycle or car share where possible, and park considerately when arriving.

All Carnethy organised races (unless stated otherwise) will adhere to the Scottish Hill Runners safety rules.
