Route information
Embrace the hills at the Edinburgh Winter Warmer Run. This race will definitely get you warm as you traverse the circumference of Holyrood Park. The course is paved so buggies are ok and the course is accessible for wheelchairs. The 5k is one lap of the course, the 10k has a two-lap route and the half marathon consists of 4 laps of the course.
The Park is home to the infamous Arthur's Seat, after your run why not go exploring to see Edinburgh's amazing skyline? This park has even hosted the British University Cross-Country Championships, so come and join this race to feel at one with the history of running and to embrace the fantastic scenery.
The course is marshalled, with crew to provide support and encouragement if needed. As the course is on public land, ensure you stay on the left-hand side unless otherwise guided.
