Baxter's Loch Ness Festival of Running Join us Join Team Cornerstone and take part in the Loch Ness 5k, 10k or Marathon and raise vital funds to help people living with learning disabilities, autism and complex needs live their best possible lives! About the Loch Ness Marathon If you’ve not done any exercise in a while and need a goal to motivate you, maybe you want to take on a new challenge, or maybe you want to raise some cash for a worthwhile cause – whatever your reason, the Loch Ness Marathon is a fantastic opportunity to lace up those trainers and make a difference. The Baxters Loch Ness Marathon is quite possibly one of the most stunning marathons in the world. With spectacular scenery, fantastic atmosphere and a truly memorable experience – it’s no wonder it is on the bucket list for so many runners from around the world. “Breathtakingly beautiful”, “friendly atmosphere”, “flawless organisation”, “felt like a festival not just a race” are just some of the comments we had from our runners in the past so why not come and experience it for yourself? The Loch Ness Marathon follows a spectacular point-to-point route alongside world famous Loch Ness, starting in an atmospheric moorland setting and continues through stunning Highland scenery, taking you along the south-eastern shores of Loch Ness, across the River Ness, to finish in Inverness, capital city of the Highlands. Why not make a Highland weekend of it and come with family or friends? There’s plenty to entertain runners and spectators over the weekend with a free Sports Expo, Baxters Food & Drink Fayre, live music, kids’ activities and a Wee Nessie for under-5s.
