SUNDAY 28th JULY 2024 – 12 NOON AT THE MONALTRIE PARK IN BALLATER – RACE CANCELLED
With sincere regrets – we have unfortunately had to cancel this year’s race due to circumstances outside of our control. There have been unexpected road closures which also mean we can’t have the drinks station. In all this renders the race unsafe for participants and we have been forced to take the difficult decision to cancel the race.
Entries CLOSED
The famous Ballater 10 is a 10 mile road race through superb countryside around Ballater, Royal Deeside.
Start and finish is at Monaltrie Park in Ballater.
There will be a new route for 2023, following the closure of the bridge between Glen Muick and Birkhall.
Leaving Ballater over the Dee and onto the South Deeside Road, runners then head past Birkhall for an out-and-back, before a clockwise loop of the woods around The Knock. The route then returns to Ballater to finish back at Monaltrie Park.
The event is conducted under UK Athletics Rules and is a Scottish Athletics Permit Event.
