Organiser's Description
This is a friendly half marathon, now in its fifth year and growing in size, but still relatively small due to its island location. The route starts on the Isle of Berneray, off the North coast of North Uist, in the Outer Hebrides, and crosses a causeway to North Uist, to finish in Lochmaddy. The route is gently undulating, but is not as challenging as some island courses - there are no killer hills! We can, however, guarantee that it will be one of the most scenic races you will do all year, with sea views for virtually the whole way. The entire route is rural and on surfaced roads.
