Highland Cross

Highland Cross is a  50-mile duathlon (20 miles on foot, 30 miles on bike) traversing the spectacular Scottish Highlands coast to coast, west to east from Kintail through Glen Affric and Strathglass to Beauly.

Highland Cross exists to raise money for causes that benefit the people of Highland, disadvantaged by disability, ill health or social need.

Entry to the Highland Cross is by invitation only for 265 teams of 3 (795 persons) of all athletic abilities; walkers, joggers, runners and cyclists. Teams must pledge to raise a minimum of £500 in sponsorship for the charities nominated by Highland Cross.

Charities interested in becoming beneficiaries from Highland Cross should consult the "Charities" page and fully examine the funding conditions before applying.

Competitor information

The Team Member Information Booklet has been sent out to each registered participant via SiEntries.  If you do not receive this, please ask your team entry owner to check that the correct email address is on your record with SiEntries.  We are finding that some work email addresses (NHS etc) are bouncing back or going straight into spam.  Ideally a personal email address works best.

In this booklet you will find all the important safety and training information, along with links to Justgiving and sponsorship sheet.   There are links to the 4 charities who will benefit from your fundraising this year – let’s make it a bumper year for them!
