Salomon Skyline Scotland Is Returning!

Salomon Skyline Scotland® was established in 2015 and featured just one race, the iconic Glen Coe Skyline®. The event then moved to Kinlochleven in 2016 and grew to nine races. It featured in the Skyrunning World Series, Golden Trails World Series, and Spartan Trail and Ultra World Championships and hosted the Skyrunning World Championships.

Salomon Skyline Scotland® established itself as a world-class mountain and trail running event, attracting 2,000+ participants from up to 50 countries annually and has generated millions of pounds of economic impact for the Lochaber region.

After a short break, we returned to relaunch in 2025, bigger and better than before!

The Ben Nevis Skyline was selected as a 2025 Golden Trail World Series qualifier race.

“Incredibly well-organised event! Despite *7* races taking place simultaneously, the event village never felt overrun / busy. Even if you were taking part in one of the shorter races or simply spectating, it was inspiring to keep track of all those participating in the longer / more demanding races via the multiple big screens and be able to cheer them across the finish line. Even better was the fact everyone crossed the *same* finish line - made my shorter event feel a little more special than it already was. Everyone was super supportive too - spectators, marshalls, organisers, fellow participants. I will *definitely* be returning! ”
