The Wrath - Three Races, One Brutal Trail

All three start in Fort William and follow the Cape Wrath Trail north. Continuous, non-stop, solo and self-sufficient — no pacers, no outside support, same DNA as The Spine.

About The Wrath

The Wrath is the new home of the Cape Wrath Ultra, reimagined in true Spine style: solo, self-sufficient, non-stop, brutal.

It’s the progression of the dream that started fifteen years ago on the Pennine Way and if anything, it goes further. The Cape Wrath Trail is more remote, more raw and more demanding than anything we’ve created before.

This isn’t a race for spectacle. It’s for runners who want to test themselves against one of the last truly wild trails left in the UK – all backed by the same dedicated logistics team, army of volunteers, safety crew and medics who make The Spine possible every year.

WHO IT’S FOR

Experienced ultra and mountain runners, comfortable in remote terrain
Prior long-distance mountain or expedition-style ultra experience expected, especially for the Full distance
Wrath Sprint South is the most realistic starting point for runners newer to ultra distances — though every entry is still vetted
