CAIRNGORM 100 - July 11-12, 2015
The Cairngorm 100 is a 100 miles in 24 hours horse riding endurance challenge with some basic similarities to the Tevis Cup.In addition to the 100 mile ride we will also be having a 50 mile ride, which has the same finish venue at Glen Clova hotel.
There are elevator options at 50 miles and 75 miles.
The date for this ride is 11th and 12th July 2015
The successful finishers of this unique challenge will each be presented with a Belt Buckle , as shown on the front page. These have been specially made and engraved, and are not available to purchase, so anyone seen wearing one will have successfully ridden the Cairngorm 100 ride!
Horse/rider combinations will start in the early hours of a Saturday morning and follow a challenging route through the foothills of the Cairngorm mountain range.
The course will consist of well established tracks and paths with some strenuous climbing in some spectacular terrain. Crewing and assistance will be in place as well as vets, farriers and mountain rescue. The welfare of the horse will be paramount.
