THE ROC Scotland

THE ROC Scotland is an extreme endurance triathlon that ventures deep into the Highlands, delivering the highest elevation gain of all THE ROC events—and one of the most demanding multisport challenges in the UK. Athletes begin with a 1.5 km swim in the cold, clear waters of Loch Leven, followed by a 27 km mountain/gravel bike ride along rugged terrain, climbing through remote glens and joining the West Highland Way to reach Fort William. The centerpiece of the race is a 17 km out-and-back mountain run up Ben Nevis, the UK’s highest peak, with over 1,300 m (4,265 ft) of elevation gain. After summiting, athletes retrace their route by bike back to Kinlochleven, finishing with a final 1.5 km trail run into the heart of the village. Every segment tests your strength, technical skill, and resilience in a setting defined by raw natural beauty and unforgiving terrain.
