In the middle of nowhere (approx 20 minutes outside of Aberdeen…) lies the infamous Glack Hill, shrouded in mystery and guarded by angry looking sheep. Once a year, the gates open and brave adventurers are challenged to take on its brutal trails! 

​Glack is about running and leaping around forests, hills and open countryside. Our unique course weaves around stunning wilderness without an inch of tarmac in sight. The timed event is perfect for all – those aiming for the Glack leaderboard, personal bests or those simply wanting a fun adventure. 

The magic 8 

The Glack Trail is 8km (and some!). Why eight kilometres? Because we have 8km of awesome trails, which should not be underestimated! We've thoroughly tested the course and we're confident it'll be the longest (and most enjoyable!) eight kilometres you'll ever run. 

​ 

And the best thing about having a unique trail course is that you can aim for the leader board and the Glack Trail record! 

Event details 

Glack Trail kick’s off at 11am on 4 September 2021, with the gates opening at 10am. To keep a smooth running and safe race, the run will start in four waves, which go out at 20 minute intervals. You can select your wave time when registering online. As it’s a timed event, race placings will cover all waves. However, for the more competitive runners, we recommend entering the first wave. 

​ 

Junior participants (ages 8 – 15) must be accompanied by an adult at the event. During the run itself, participants under the age of 12 must have an 18+ year old guardian who is a registered participant in the event. They must stick together throughout the run. There can be two participants under 12 years of age per one guardian.
