The Dava Way 50km

The Dava Way 50k is the dream stepping stone for marathoners edging into the ultra world and a fast, confidence boosting blast for seasoned ultrarunners chasing a PB. It’s no surprise Runner’s World named it one of the UK’s must-do ultras, and it recently bagged a RaceCheck Gold Award. Not bad for a “hidden” Scottish gem.

Starting in Grantown-on-Spey and finishing in Forres, this point-to-point trail follows the old Highland Railway line, meaning beautifully runnable miles, blue skies, and that satisfyingly sneaky RD-designed detour at the end.

You’ll climb steadily to the Dava Summit (1050ft) - enough to keep things spicy - before rolling all the way to sea level. Expect a perfect mix of woodland, moorland, farmland and those wide-open Highland views that make you forget you’re working hard.

Scotland has plenty of iconic trails… but the Dava Way is one of its quiet masterpieces. Come and find out why so many runners finish this one buzzing.
