The Martin Currie Rob Roy Challenge is an exciting team-building event. Participants can enjoy the spectacular scenery of one of Scotland's finest long distance routes while raising money for three superb charities. 
The event covers 55 miles of the spectacular Rob Roy Way by a combination of walking and cycling. On completion of the event at Kenmore on Saturday evening, teams will be hosted with a sumptuous feast and party, and a range of hihgland activities. This will be followed by camping on the stunning banks of Loch Tay or accommodation in nearby hotels. A special breakfast will be served on Sunday before teams depart for home.
We have three medal stages including relay options for all participants.
 |
Teams or individuals completing and stopping at Balquhidder (27 miles) will receive a Bronze medal; |
|
Those reaching Killin (38 miles) will earn a Silver medal; and |
|
Those completing the entire 55 mile course will earn Gold. |
Each team should be supported by a vehicle that will meet participants at the designated checkpoints.
