54 miles. 24 hours.

Take on the best. Take on the Yomp

Saturday 7 June – Sunday 8 June 2025, Blairgowrie.

Have you got what it takes to take on the best?

The Cateran Yomp is the biggest, toughest event of its kind. Every year, hundreds of Yompers gather in the Scottish wilderness to battle through the foothills of the Cairngorm Mountains, walking continuously for 54 miles over 24 hours*. Based on an infamous long-distance military training march, it takes every ounce of grit you possess.  And every single step helps our mission: to be there for soldiers, for veterans, for their families. For life. 

*There is also a 22 mile, 36 mile and relay option

The Yomp takes courage. Discipline. Integrity. Teamwork. It’s not easy (understatement). But we promise, it will be 24 hours that you’ll never forget.


GOLD DISTINCTION AWARD
Serving soldiers who complete the full 54 mile route in teams of four or more, in less than 24 hours, earn the exclusive Gold Distinction Award.

What you get

All food and drink across the route. Campsite access. A goodie bag, technical t-shirt and that all-important medal. Plus training tips and fundraising support, including setting up your online fundraising page.

Bragging rights? They come for free.

Mind you, so do blisters – that’s why we set up a Facebook page for Yompers to swap advice and info every year.

Shake up team building for ever

Brian from Accounts may never forgive you, but that’s a story for another day. With three routes to choose from, the Yomp isn’t out of reach.

So if you want your guys to take on the best, rather than taking on the blah, let’s talk.

We can put together a stress-free package for almost any size of team.

Mates first

The Yomp is a team event. You'll have the best time if you're in a team. But if you don’t have a team, it’s no biggie – we’ll set you off with other lone wolves for you to buddy up. Of course, if you see someone Yomping on their own, say hello. 

You must be 16 to take part in the Yomp. Upper age limits? Not on our watch. If you’re fit enough to take on the Yomp, there’s a place for you in Perthshire.
