Starting and finishing on the lawn in front of Crathes Castle, the PIM Half Marathon route takes you out onto country roads to the North and East of the estate grounds. Runners will head out towards the estate of fellow National Trust for Scotland property, Drum Castle, eventually turning and heading back in a loop towards the finish line. Most of the route is on quiet back roads with a couple of level, off-road farm track sections.
The 1.5K and 5K events share the same start and finish with the Half Marathon, however these shorter distance routes remain within the scenic grounds of Crathes Castle providing a good challenge for all levels of runners.
