In 2024, our 34 supporters stepped out in Edinburgh Kiltwalk to raise an amazing £10,529.74 for Prostate Scotland in the Capital. What an achievement!

We’re delighted that four Kiltwalks are planned for 2025, in Glasgow, Aberdeen, Dundee and Edinburgh.  We offer our supporters a free place when they fundraise for us in any of the Kiltwalk routes.  You have a choice three routes in the Edinburgh Kiltwalk.  It’s ideal for a group of colleagues, friends or family to take part in as a team.  The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming, and you’ll be fundraising too!

The event is not timed, not a race, and walkers of all capabilities are welcomed.  Dogs can join in with their owners! And…wearing your kilt or a touch of tartan with your Prostate Scotland t-shirt is all part of the experience!

Choose your route!

The routes of each Kiltwalk vary, depending on your choice of distance. These are the distances for 2023, to give you an idea. Routes will be confirmed nearer the time.

The Wee Wander – this is an easier challenge of 4.6 miles. If you’d like to fundraise with a young family, this could be an ideal event for you. This starts at Gypsy Brae.

Cost of registration:  Child £7.00 (5-15 years)/Adult £13.00

The Big Stroll – an intermediate challenge suitable for most fitness levels, ideal for a fun day out with a group or an older family.  This route is 11.2 miles long. Walkers aged 10 and above can take part in the Big Stroll. You’ll line up at Fisherrow Links in Musselburgh.

Cost of registration:  £20.00

The Mighty Stride – the biggest Kiltwalk challenge, where training is essential.  This route is 20.5 miles long.  Walkers aged 13 and above can take part in the Mighty Stride. The route begins at Bingham Medway.
