Course information
The Stirling double-lap route is situated within the grounds of the University of Stirling. You will enjoy the picturesque landscape and a mixed terrain including grass, pathways and a small hill when approaching the golf course. You will pass the beautiful Airthey Loch, taking in the view of the Wallace Monument before heading towards the athletics track to finish. The main event site is on grass so may be slightly muddy underfoot depending on recent weather.
Please remember to bring your own water bottle already filled as there will be no bottled water provided at events. There will be a water refill station 1/2 around the course and a ScottishPower water refill station will be available to use at the finish.
Please arrive 30 to 45 mins before your start time so that you are prepared and ready to go on time.
Our courses have been measured with a measuring wheel. This is the most accurate measurement method and may not always correspond with digital tracking a

Parking
Unfortunately the full course route is not suitable for wheelchair users due to a large section of course utilising the fields of the golf course and rugby pitches. The course can be adapted by continuing on the path around the loch and not turning onto the golf course, however this will reduce the route to approximately 7k. On event day, please approach the blue admin tent to discuss this adjustment further. The event site, start and end of the course is also on uneven grass which could make conditions difficult in bad weather.
