Illuminator Night Trail Race

Go wild through the night on Scotland’s toughest night trail race!

Run the established Illuminator ... 15 dark miles over rugged hill & forest trails - or choose from our NEW 8KM and 15KM routes, with just the glow of your head torch to lead the way. Experience the natural beauty of Glen Tanar in a spectacular new light.

PLEASE NOTE: START TIMES FOR THE 8KM AND 15KM ROUTES ARE TBC

  • Runners: Choose any of the 3 routes to race hard for the win, compete with others or just jog round with friends
  • Walkers: Choose between either of the two shorter routes. Walk with friends or go solo - NB runners only on the 15 mile route

  • Amazing location: the venue Glen Tanar is a National Nature Reserve and part of the spectacular Cairngorms National Park
  • Complete darkness: apart from your head torch and the light zone & reflectives en route
  • Race timing: electronic chip timing for all

  • Eco medals: turn your wooden memento coaster into a jute ribbon eco medal ... if you want!
