Dunedin 5K Kilted Trail Run

Dunedin 5K Kilted Trail Run takes place in Dunedin, Florida, on April 3, 2027, at 8:30 AM. This annual 5K trail run and walk is held at Highlander Park as part of the Dunedin Highland Games, and wearing a kilt is encouraged though not required.

Entry includes access to the Highland Games themselves, with Celtic bands, bagpipe performances and more on the program, so plan to stay after you finish. Pre-registered runners get a bib, a festival wristband and a drink voucher in their race packet, while late entrants may find shirt sizes limited — a reason to sign up early. On trail, a 5K asks slightly more than the road version: uneven footing slows your pace and works the ankles, so run a few sessions off pavement beforehand and judge the effort by feel rather than by your watch.
