Skyline Scotland by UTMB

Many people had wondered about this when Ourea Events closed up shop earlier this year that UTMB might step in and take over one of their events. Today we’re getting the confirmation from the newly renamed ‘Skyline Scotland by UTMB’ Instagram account:

Commenting on the announcement, Skyline Scotland founder Shane Ohly said:
“This is the start of a new chapter for Skyline Scotland, and a big step forward for trail running in Scotland. We had been in conversation with UTMB World Series since 2021. Over that time, we’ve built a really strong relationship with a shared ambition to create genuinely world-class trail-running experiences.

The official UTMB website doesn’t seem to be ready yet, but the reel suggests a next iteration making a comeback in September 2027. I will update the ECC events calendar once I have all the info.
