Appointment of Administrators to Ourea Events Limited and Skyline Trail Races Limited

It is with deep regret that I must announce that Ourea Events has ceased trading and is currently in discussions with professional advisors.

For the second consecutive year, headline sponsor Salomon is backing Skyline Scotland with a prize fund, reinforcing the event’s status as one of the UK’s most iconic mountain running festivals and underlining the continued drive to elevate the sport at the highest level. 

Skyline Scotland made its return this weekend after a year’s break, and what a comeback it was, with almost 1,700 runners, from first-time 10K participants to seasoned 100-kilometre ultrarunners, entered from across the UK, Europe and beyond.

Salomon Skyline Scotland™ 2023 marked the final event in Kinlochleven, hosting an epic weekend of skyrunning and trail races across distances from 5km to 80km. Participants faced varying weather conditions, with Saturday’s ideal running weather followed by challenging conditions on Sunday. The event, known for its global participation and inclusion in prestigious race series, will return in 2025 at a new location in Scotland.

There is a real energy to Salomon Skyline Scotland®. As a spectator in the event village, you can feel it, and as a participant on the trails, you experience it up front and personal! 

There is a dedicated team of permanent staff at Ourea Event who work year-round to make this event happen with the support of an incredible team of professional and volunteer staff, who bring the weekend to life. I am greatly indebted to each and every one of them, and wish to express my sincere thanks and praise for their efforts. What a brilliant group of people!  

Once again, Salomon Skyline Scotland® has absolutely delivered on its promise of a weekend of world-class sky, mountain and trail running in the Scottish Highlands. The events reputation has been building with each edition and it is widely acknowledged as the UK’s biggest, and most challenging, weekend of high-octane off-road running. It is only right and proper that I recognise the enormous contribution that the event team, participants, and local community make to the success of the event - Thank you!

The rise of Salomon Skyline Scotland™ is unprecedented. After hosting the hugely successful Skyrunning World Championships in 2018 we set ourselves an almost impossible challenge to improve the event again in 2019.

The greatest line up of mountain runners the UK has ever witnessed gathered in Scotland last weekend for the Salomon Skyline Scotland™ event, which hosted the 2018 Skyrunning® World Championships, the Golden Trail Series and the Skyrunner® World Series. 

As many of you will know, I always write an honest and thoughtful Race Director’s report in the week after each event that I organise. Unusually, my Race Director’s report for Salomon Skyline Scotland™ has been delayed until now. Truth be told, my team and I have been exhausted after organising three large events spread over three weekends, i.e. within two weeks of each other! It was a stretch for us, but by far, the sequence of events has been highly successful and the time since Salomon Skyline Scotland™ has given me some more time to read feedback and reflect.
