James & George Collie 15 Mile Trail Race<\/a><\/h4>\n

An epic 15 miles of Highland scenery. There is something special about this event! You start in view of Balmoral Castle and run out west adjacent the magnificent river Dee before beginning a gradual climb through the Ballochbuie pine forest. Then at mile 8, you leave the river and begin a climb to the base of Lochnagar, an ascent of about 120 meters. The last 3 miles are a rush as you hurtle down towards the Castle once again; but beware..there is a sting in the tail![\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_row_inner content_placement=”top”][vc_column_inner][vc_single_image image=”2918″ img_size=”300×225″ style=”vc_box_shadow_3d” onclick=”custom_link” link=”https:\/\/runbalmoral.com\/content\/event-info\/6-mile-trail-race\/”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=”4824″ img_size=”Medium” onclick=”custom_link” link=”\/content\/event-info\/6-mile-trail-race\/”][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]\n

Run Balmoral 6 Mile Trail Race<\/a><\/h4>\n
\n
\n

With a mix of tarmac, track and turf, the Run Balmoral 6 Mile Trail Race is a true all-terrain event!  Open to anyone over the age of 15, the race can be approached as an introduction to trail running for beginners or as challenging sprint for the more experienced. Each lap runs alongside the River Dee to start before heading uphill – and then down again for a fast mile back to the start. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]
